Older firefox had useful button with a drop-down menu where i could quickly check specific account mail instead of checking whole long list.

Now the options seems to be

A) File > Get new messages for > account name here

B) mouse right click the cloud-down icon which is on the right of the "New message" button in the Folder pane on the left. If it is not there, then go to menu View / Layout / Folder pane

C) select the account folder in the left sidebar and then click the cloud-down icon in the upper part of the same sidebar. But then you have to again click back to a unified inbox folder (if youa re using it like me), which is annoying.

Someone said that in 120.x version it may be improved:
"The same context menu is available in the Get Messages button that can be added to the Unified Bar, but only in the current 120beta. It will eventually be included in the release version."
