You can do that with IMAP as well, e.g. in Evolution there's an option to "copy folder locally for offline operation", which will take care of that automatically.

There is literally nothing you can do with POP that you can't also do with IMAP. poc _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org
