Hello all, I am new to mutt and really enjoying using it. However I have a different requirement and need some help. I need a solution where mutt just downloades all headers locally and downloads only those emails off line which I wish. I checked offline imap and face 2 problems. After configuring offline imap and mutt together, I find that offline imap downloads inbox till some time and then does not go ahead after that. It basically chokes after downloading some emails and can't go ahead. Secondly, I don't want all my emails to be downloaded when I use imap (I would have used pop instead ). What I need is that mutt just caches the email headers for quick search off line and only downloades emails if and when I command it to do so to my local folder.
So is there any other solution apart from offline imap that will serve my purpose? if yes what is the way to configure it? can mutt directly download emails in a maildir format and store it locally? Happy hacking. Krishnakant.
