When away from home I can't access my "home" email account. So I go to "Edit accounts" and switch of the "get mail" ('G') flag for it. "Get from all accounts" now obviously ignores the "home" account. However, when I "Empty all Trash folders" and I have inadvertently left Claws Mail in a state where it believes there is a message in the trash for the "home" account, I get an error saying I can't connect to the server. I'm a compulsive trash emptier so this gets quite distracting. :-( Can you please consider treating the "get mail" ('G') flag as a more general account enable/disable flag and use it to stop "Empty all Trash folders" from trying to empty the trash in a "disabled" account? Given that there is no way to temporarily disable an account, using the "get mail" flag is as good as it gets. I know that I can empty the trash for individual accounts... but I always just reach for 'D'. :-)
