Feature request: Automatic collapse of mailbox lists

#346

When using the keyboard shortcuts to move between mailboxes, it would be great if the mailbox hierarchy being exited would collapse back down to the top level element. For instance, if I'm sitting in the 'Inbox' list and, using the keyboard, go to a mailbox on a specific IMAP server, that mailbox list is expanded. If I now go back to the Inbox (via keyboard still), the previous server mailbox list is still expanded. Having that list auto-collapse back down upon leaving would be a welcome addition.

Thanks,

    At first I thought it would be too hard to make this behave in a natural way, but I guess the “rule” could be: Only keep a parent mailbox expanded when it was explicitly expanded in the mailbox outline (using the mouse or the keyboard).
