The filter icon in MAIL is a real pain. It's where my delete button used to be so I click filter by mistake. Please Apple give us a way to move the filter icon out of the tool bar.

What is a filter icon in Mail...?

If you Control click in the mail tool bar area you can drag and drop— on or off the tool bar options..

Same for the new mail /compose interface—Control click and make changes:

This works for everything tool except filter which is fixed in place. All the other tools wiggle for moving etc. the filter tool does not wiggle and can't be moved.

Ok I see it now— never used it, I simply ignore it

I see no user preference to disable this 'feature'
