Research direction
Start at the mailbox navigation and refresh entry point in the frontend, tracing how refresh state is represented when a mailbox is opened. Confirm the existing refresh behavior and make the spinner visible for that operation; done means navigating to a mailbox visibly indicates the refresh in progress.
