I used to use the "Get messages" button to download only the new messages for the currently active account.

After the latest update (thank you to all contributors BTW!) the button seems to have changed to check for all accounts.

Is there a way to customize that button to only check the currently active account, like it has been until now?

I know there's a keyboard shortcut F5, but it would also be nice to have the mouse option on the toolbar as well.

I don't remember ending the title with an exclamation mark, it sounds so dramatic now :D I should have changed it to "How to get the "Get Mesasges" button to check only current account".
