228875 - Prepend Account to "Receiving X of Y Messages" Status

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 66860

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Message Display, enhancement)

Description

[Robert Emery]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.5) Gecko/20031007
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.5) Gecko/20031007

When the mail component of Moz is active, and e-mails are being downloaded from
one's ISP server, a message appears on the status bar (bottom most bar of the
window).  Its form is (from memory) "Receiving X of Y Messages".  Since in my
profile I have several different accounts, it would be more meaningful to know
for which account the status message applies.

Therefore, I would like to recommend for a future enhancement that the
"Receiving" message be prefixed with an account identifier.  E.g., 

Emery:  Receiving 1 of 3 messages.

Thank you.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Retrieve waiting messages from one's mail server.
Actual Results:  
Various "Receiving" messages appared on the status bar of the mail window.

Expected Results:  
Prepended the "Receiving" messages with an account identifier.

Reopening.  The two RFEs are related, but definitely not the same thing.

Subset of bug 224436 (which refers to all status bar messages). Duping?
