Offline mode is a tool designed for use with a dialup
connection or for laptop users who do not have a network
connection at all times. It allows you to cache messages
for reference while you are not connected to the
network, and to compose messages and leave them in your
Outbox to be sent the next time you connect to the network.

reconnect, choose

of the window.

If you use POP mail, all your messages will be
available to you, because they are stored locally. If
you use IMAP or Exchange mail, messages are stored
remotely, so availability is a little different.

Messages that you have read are cached and stored
locally; all read messages will be available to you
even if you are offline. Unread messages will be
downloaded and saved for offline use if they are in a
folder that you have marked as an Offline Folder. To
mark a folder for offline use, select
<menuchoice><guimenu>Settings</guimenu>
<guimenuitem>Preferences</guimenuitem></menuchoice> and
then click the <guilabel>Folders</guilabel> icon. In
the <guilabel>Offline Folders</guilabel> tab, click the
check-box next to the folders that you would like to
use while you are offline. Then, when you select
<guimenuitem>Go Offline</guimenuitem>, Evolution will
fetch their contents and store them for later
reference.

Offline mode is a tool designed for use with IMAP or Exchange
mail accounts in situations where you will not be connected to
the network at all times. It will keep a local copy of one or
more folders, and allow you to compose messages, storing them
in your Outbox to be sent the next time you connect.

<para>
While POP mail downloads all messages to your local system,
IMAP and Exchange connections usually download just the
headers, and fetch the rest only when you want to read the
message. Before you go offline, Evolution will download
the unread messages from the folders you have chosen to
store.

To mark a folder for offline use, select <menuchoice>
