I'm inclined to agree with guenther.  This sounds like a big usability
problem that needs to be addressed.  Toolbar buttons should NOT simply
"go away" within the same general view, IMO.  This is a usability thing
that was learned by most vendors long ago.  Gray-it-out if you must, but
don't make it disappear.

I absolutely agree.  This is one of the most important functions of an
E-mail client these days, beyond actually retrieving the mail and
displaying it.  It must work effectively.

Just my two cents.
