"Error": Compressing the mbox-files of an account requires triggering the compress  process for each folder individually, one after another

The context menu of the root entry of each e-mail account should contain a entry labeled "Compress".

Clicking on that entry should compress all folder within.
As such an operation may require some time, some sort of progress indicator showing some minimal information (for instance the folder that is currently processed) would be helpful.

Reproducible: Always
Confirming valid RFE. Note that there's a global Compact Folders option in the File menu, but it's true that there is none per account.
