[Feature]: Global Search as default #311

Description

@be-nj

Problem / Motivation

I would like the search bar above the mailbox to conduct a search in all folders by default. The current way to do a global search is a little complicated because the user needs to open 2 menus consecutively, which means the option is quite hidden ("more/sieve-icon" -> advanced search -> change current Folder to "All Folders"). This has to be repeated after every navigation event / page reload.

If for some reason the current behaviour is well-reasoned, please consider a user-option to make "All folders" the default setting for searches. Thank you very much.

Proposed Solution

Make "All Folders" the default search scope

or

Add an option under /settings that allows switching from the current behaviour (search in current folder) to my disired one.
