Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Steps to reproduce:
- Empty an inbox folder from one account by using the "Clear all messages " command
- Go to All inboxes virtual folder
- Removed emails are still listed and overload the view, lowering the value of this virtual folder.
Describe the solution you'd like
Apply the same logic that moving or removing a single item from Account's inbox actually refreshes the All inboxes view.
Describe alternatives you've considered
I tried clicking on the "reload" button near the "New message" one, but it doesn't trigger a rebuild of the view.
Additional context
Maybe having an entry to force the rebuild of the index for the All inboxes folder could help

Research direction
Start at the account inbox's "Clear all messages" command and trace how the All inboxes virtual folder is rebuilt after messages are removed. Compare this with the refresh path used when moving or removing a single item. Done means cleared messages no longer remain listed in All inboxes without requiring a manual reload.
