Jennifer, Should 'Get message' items be enabled when account level is selected?
There is no visual feedback that new messages have been retrieved since Acct Central instead of the Thread pane is being displayed, but I don't think there is any reason why "Get Msg" shouldn't work if Acct Level is selected.
Confirming this bug based on jennifer's comments. The menu items and the toolbar button is greyed out when account level is selected which should not be. We already have another bug for get message button has no visual feed back.

nominating this bug with keyword nsbranch. Menu items and tool bar button for get msg should be enabled even when account level is selected and when we display the account central page instead of thread pane.
