Im not too sure if this is already there, but i cannot find it anywhere.

An option for going offline for a specific account should be available for each email account. When holding the email account down to open a menu there should be an option there for ease of use.
Until the user feels that the email account should come online, then he can manually switch it on again.

Any thoughts?

I agree that this would be nice, both to stop getting mail and to stop data usage. Most other mail clients have an offline/online mode. k-9 sort of does, but it's offline when the network is down. So this would sort of be 'pretend the network is down'.

Nice to have, indeed! This would avoid having to edit all accounts or to disable network access for this specific application by other means.

Chiming in just to reinforce the idea that this switch, if implemented, should be at the account level (e.g. put work email offline while on vacation, keep personal email online at all times), and not at the application level.
