I am often in areas without a cell or WiFi signal, so I would like use K-9 Mail primarily as an offline mail reader.
I have Push totally disabled, and I only want to Pull when I manually select Refresh. I am connected to an IMAP server that has a number of folders with messages that go back several years. I'd like for all of those messages to be permanently saved on my device so I can read them any time I choose, even when I'm offline. Therefore, I have specified no time limit for my message polling, for each of the accounds wherein these folders reside. I initially polled for all of these messages. After a period of time, all of the messages in all those IMAP folders have been downloaded to my device. All this works, except for one issue. I have several hundred messages in each of several folders. When I am on line and select Refresh, K-9 mail takes a very long time to re-poll each folder, even though all the hundreds of messages have already been downloaded. If I change my polling time limit to, say, a month, this re-polling of already-existing messages goes a lot faster, but then, I can only view a month's worth of messages in each folder. Is there any way to tell K-9 to display all pre-fetched messages in each folder, but only to poll for newer messages when I perform a Refresh? An alternative would be for the re-polling of already fetched messages to run a lot faster. Is that possible, perhaps?
