Description

Expected behavior

All accounts and mailboxes are checked one-by-one (or at least how it looks like judging from the status in the main window) during Pull (push/idle works differently and it seems that notifications are generated concurrently)

Actual behavior

They should be checked at the same time

Steps to reproduce
  1. open the app with multiple accounts/mailboxes
  2. hit "sync"
Environment

K-9 Mail version:5.203

Android version:6.0.1

Account type (IMAP, POP3, WebDAV/Exchange): 3x IMAP

Research direction

No source file, test, or entry point is named. Reproduce Pull with multiple IMAP accounts and mailboxes, then trace the sync flow and main-window status updates; done means the accounts or mailboxes are checked concurrently and their progress is reflected correctly.
