It happens to me very often, that the status line already says "There are no new
messages on the server.".
In this case, When I click 'Get Msg' and there are no new messages, I get no
visual information that mozilla has reacted to my request (by contacting the
server), because the status line does not change.

I expect seeing something like "contacting server for new messages ..." for a
short time, to know that I haven't missed the button :)
I'm sorry that mailnews is so blazingly fast. Seriously though, you'll just have
to trust the status bar; if it says "No new messages on the server." then it
means that.

I think this bug is invalid.
Hwaara, no this is not invalid.  See my comments in bug 68727 for why it's not.
