I'm currently in the process of deleting nearly all of my inactive aliases (with exception for only a few). There are about 40 of them. I have them all grouped and at the top of the list of aliases and I'm deleting them one by one. I have deleted most of them by now, but I just realized that I'm sort of on auto-pilot now and just clicking without thinking or looking twice at what I'm deleting. So I realized the "Delete alias" dialog box could be more descriptive.

I propose adding the alias name to the dialog box to make it clear what alias is being deleted. The title could include the alias name. So instead of Delete alias it could say Delete foo@anonaddy.me or the alias name could be added below the title, either as a sub-title (or sub-heading) or baked into the main description (wherever it says "this").
