It would be handy to have the option of defining an account that COULD receive 
messages with the option of disabling receiving in the setup (a simple 
checkbox, "enabled" or "disabled", for example.)

Normally I want incoming emails to go to my desktop machine and just have the 
option of sending the odd message from my N800. But when I'm away on holiday, 
for example, it would be useful to pick up messages so I don't have to wait 
until I get home.

In fact, something like Kmail has would work well. Each receiving account has 
the option to include or exclude it from being checked at intervals and it's 
possible to configure it to check for mail when it starts up or not to, 
whichever is preferred.
