It's not necessary (though it is possible if you prefer it that way). Otherwise, set: File->Preferences-><account>->Receiving Options->Automatically Synchronize Remote Mail Locally. Note that this is really intended for enabling disconnected access to your IMAP mail. Most people wouldn't bother taking a backup since that's what the server is for, but YMMV. poc _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list [email protected] To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
