Deleted by accident all emails in Inbox

I need a feature inside the trash folder to show when a msg was deleted. I accidentally was on the delete key on my keyboard and it deleted all emails (20 of them) from my inbox. In outlook (MS) you have the option so show the delete day of the msg and you can easy restore the deleted emails from today. Not sure how to do this in Thunderbird. thanks

I think I just answerd my own question: In the trash folder , click the icon "select columns to display" add "Order received" then sort and voila the newest once are the one from the inbox. Hope this helps someone else

Another request could be that the delete key multiple times it pops up a dialog box. But the "Order Received" really did the trick.
