Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
The simple sms application requires a long press to select and fumbling through the menu to archive/delete. The ability to swipe left or right is a more common gesture and imo is more intuitive.

Describe the solution you'd like
It would be great to have the left or right swipes configurable to either archive or delete.

Describe alternatives you've considered

I'll agree, with the emphasis on CONFIGURABLE. I know some people would like this, but I don't like it. For me, another SMS app I used which had it was perpetually accidentally archiving things because I can be a little ham-handed. If this feature is present, but can be disabled, I'd see it as an improvement.

Reverting needs triage because we need to have UI/UX similar in all apps. More info here: FossifyOrg/Phone#77 (comment).

This missing feature is the only thing preventing my from migrating from the stock Android app: that swipe gesture got under my skin somehow!
