I know I can: get messages for the currently selected account get messages for all accounts

But I want to be able to run manually, and get emails from some accounts at once. For example - Get new emails from hello1@domain.com, hello2@domain.com, AND hello3@domain.com in one shot.

The reason, I have 100 emails accounts from 100 domains I manage, and need to get only emails from the 5 or 6 domains that are really important, on demand.

Most every other email client has these groups available.

How do I do it?

Thunderbird does not have this grouping.

Yes, I found this out. So to retrieve email from 23 accounts, I must click 'get email' 23 times.

You might check the addon, Get/Send Button, as it may have what you're looking for.
