I know this has been asked before, but there was no reply of any substance, and the original ticket has been archived. This is still an issue for some of us. Right now clicking the "Get Messages" button only fetches messages for the account that's active. Some of us would like to set "Get ALL Messages" as a default. This hardly seems like a big ask.

That is already there in 115. The 'get messages' button defaults to ALL.

This does not match my experience. I'm using 115.3.1, and the "Get Messages" button (cloudy-looking thing with an arrow depending from it) *only* fetches from the currently-highlighted account. Is there perhaps some config setting that's causing that -- I'm thinking of something that was set by an earlier version of TB, perhaps many years ago, and that I've overlooked or never seen.

Add the 'Get Messages' button to the unified toolbar.
