[sylpheed:36265] Re: Synchronizing emails locally

[Ernst van der Storm]

Hi,

You should look at account preferences, there is a tab receive with a field number of days.
That's one good feature of Sylpheed, works great!

 Hi,
 
 What is Sylpheed's default "policy" regarding synchronizing emails that are on a (remote) IMAP server, to the local cache?
 
 In other words, how far back will Sylpheed look and/or download messages from the server into the cache (for example, inside .sylpheed-2.0/imapcache/mail.domain.com/user at domain.com/INBOX)? (The full message, i.e. headers + body as opposed to just headers)?
 
 It doesn't seem to be "all"; is it based on numbers of days back, or total size? (Or is it all but I'm just not seeing them, etc.?)
 
 I don't see any settings to configure this sync so I imagine this is coded in and follows a set policy.
 
 Thanks.
