In mail the "Get Msgs" button at POP3 accounts sometimes is disabled, although
the selected folder is the inbox of the POP3 account. The menu item "Get new
Messages" in the "File" menu still works, even when the button is disabled.
I have several POP3 accounts and some IMAP accounts in my Mozilla. The problem
only occurs on POP3 accounts. Sometimes the following workaround works:
Enter the inbox of another POP3 account, then switch back to the first POP3
account: the "Get Msgs" button of the first POP3 account is again enabled. If
this does not work, enter the inbox of a IMAP account, wait some seconds. Then
switch back to the inbox of the POP3 account: the "Get Msgs" button should be
enabled again. Both workarounds do not always work.

Reproducible: Sometimes
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Mail
2. Read some mail in several POP3 accounts and local folders


Actual Results:  In most cases the "Get Msgs" button gets disabled and not again
enabled when you read mail from other folders than the inbox (when mail gets
moved to other folders by a filter)

Expected Results:  "Get Msgs" button should be always enabled when in INBOX of
any account
OK, I now can reproduce this any time: 
- Check mail for POP3 account, stay in the inbox
- switch to any folder on "Local Folders": "Get Msgs" button gets disabled
- go back to POP3 inbox: "Get Msgs" button still is disabled, although the menu
item "Get new Messages" in the "File" menu is enabled.
