If you make sure to download complete messages, then you can do everything you can in a IMAP account while offline that you would do in a POP account, except create IMAP folders. You can set message to fully download in your mail check schedule (click on the "Click here for account options" button) or at Tools->Accounts->IMAP_Account->Options->Always download complete message bodies. -Remo Del Bello -- A computer is like an Old Testament god, with a lot of rules and no mercy. - Scott Peterson -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> archives: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.letterrip.com/> old-archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.boingo.com/>
