thunderbird automatically syncs unsubscribed Gmail All Mail when you hit the "a" key

I do not sync Gmail All Mail as it is simply a duplicate of all my other folders.

However, if you accidently hit the "a" on the keyboard whilst in the folder view, Thunderbird automatically opens the Gmail All Mail folder and starts downloading/syncing the folder. Mine is around 20Gb so rather annoying.

I have to close TB, open it then quickly, unsubscribe to the Gmail All Mail folder, then close, delete the msf file and then I can go back into TB for it to work normally.

Is there a solution to this? How can I stop the "a" key from opening an unsubscribed folder?

Thanks for the help

You are archiving when you press 'a', and in gmail this is interpreted as moving it to All Mail.

I'd suggest you look at the KeyConfig add-on, which lets you specify (and disable!) keyboard short-cuts.
