This might complicate things, but couldn't it both download and act on
items independent of the server, and mirror certain changes back to the

Yes, but then you are playing by the rules of IMAP. At least for half of
your stuff. So you need to know the rules and implement them correctly :D
If Letters is going to be an IMAP program, I agree with John Welch. Make a
rock solid IMAP client, and layer on the goodies on top of that, some of
which might not transfer to other programs (client side filters for
example). John might disagree with me, but an option is to make it
essentially only an offline IMAP client like most other clients. The other
is to offer that mode and offer a no-cache option too.
