Thanks.  Is there any way to change that behaviour?  I want a complete
copy of my mailstore when I am travelling.

If you're building from source, you can patch

 mail/mail-ops.c:prep_offline_do()

camel_disco_folder_prepare_for_offline(...)

The current search used is
 (match-all
  (or
   (not
    (system-flag "Seen"))
   (system-flag "Flagged")))

To match everything:
 (match-all)

etc.

that would be correct. going offline only syncs: 1) unread mail 2)
important mail

Jeff, and others

Thanks for your very prompt reply.  I have already ticked all the
folders in Settings | Folder Settings | Offline Folders so that is not
the problem - I still only get headers for some messages, and if I click
on the message to view the message body I get "Error retrieving message
303. You must be working online to complete this operation".

I have experimented further, and found that the problem is not quite as
I described in my earlier email (in which I thought it was a problem of
subfolders).

I now find that the problem is that mail messages do not seem to be
cached if they have already been read on another client (eg using a web
client). In this case, I only get the header.  It seems that the body of
messages that are unread; or which have been read using this copy of
Evolution before going offline, are properly cached when you go
offline.  (I am not sure yet whether there are exceptions to this.)

I would be grateful for any further advice on this.

Owen
