Sending Caravans

I likely am tempted to recall caravans a lot less than other people, since most of the vans I send are long-range trips of 1 caravan of goods to new players.

It is possible for people to contribute to the discussion for the good of the game rather than for some personal interest.

I know most people do this already when being thieved and their online.  I send adv res in caravans to another of my cities.  Safe.  Players SHOULD have someway to safeguard goods from incoming thieves...  Hearing "awww man,  thieving would be complicated and take planning" is pretty bunk.  To do everything effectively in Illy you need planning and strategy, it would really not have any major impact.  Especially since we are suggesting a 1-2 minute window to recall like with military and diplos... Not unlimited recall ability.  So stop hating on this wonderful thread!

The trade accept button is a different story.  If recall isn't okay for ordinary harvesting issues another solution would be to provide more info in the "send" form:  How long will it take to get to the target, and are there already other vans on the way to or harvesting at the target?  At the moment the "send" form only allows to pick one or more vans, but offers no detailed info.

For the mail delete undo it's similar:  If I could delete a system mail while reading it I wouldn't need an undo. But as it is I have to quit the mail, then find it in the list, select it, scroll down, and click delete.  Problem is, I sometimes select the wrong mail, the subjects are similar or sometimes identical, e.g., "spy mission to new settlement successful".

After figuring out that this old "new settlement" is now an even newer settlement with a rainbow the message can be deleted.  But there are several of these messages in the list, which is the one I want to delete?
