Not bug , suggestion


Actual results:

Can disable an email account easily.


Expected results:

How about a check box to disable an email account, so can use get all mail without getting a particular account or accounts. When testing getting mail on a different device, want to disable mail fetch on PC. No easy way to do that now except to purposely misconfigure port number on server. Works but would concerned may eventually cause problem as construed as attack by server.
In the account settings you could switch off checking e-mail for that account on start-up and also disable checking after a certain amount of time.
