I also like the idea of downloading mails from the server to a local machine. To me it 'feels' more secure. ;) Ask yourself what would happen if your machine crashed or was stolen. How would you rescue your mail? I certainly trust that my mail service (FastMail) has a more robust backup system

Hi OK I'm a complete newbie to IMAP, sorry. I've grasped the concept of all messages being located on the remote server, in my case my ISP, and I've made the connection and seen it work. Very cool to see a new message immediately appear in the Inbox. So, if I want to keep a message on the local
