Description

Feature Request

Once we have #2578 it would be nice for the user to show a progress on the indexing of their mailbox. Then you get a feeling if the process is just taking longer or got stuck.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the dependency issue #2578 and the existing initial mailbox-sync flow. Identify where sync progress is available and how the user-facing mailbox view could expose it; done means users can distinguish a slow sync from one that is stuck.
