This will achieve the same effect:
tell application "Mail"
repeat with thisAccount in accounts
set enabled of thisAccount to not enabled of thisAccount
end repeat

But, wouldn't this take some accounts offline (those that are
online) and take others online (those that are offline)?
That is correct, but Mr. Wing's original message implied that all of
them would be online at the same time or offline at the same time.
I like (eventually!) to write idiot proof script. One day they are NOT
going to be all on or all off because you let someone use your
computer for just a moment and ... In other words, you are depending
on good habits to make the script work. So, how about this ...
display dialog "blah blah blah" buttons {"All Offline", "All Online",
"Cancel"} default button 3
set lineStatus to ((button returned of the result) contains "Online")
tell application "Mail"
repeat with thisAccount in accounts
set enabled of thisAccount to lineStatus
end repeat
end tell
