This makes no sense e.g. you might want to cache a subfolder but not its
parent, or cache headers but not bodies, etc. etc. In my defense I
haven't had my morning tea yet :-)


Also it doesn't stop Evo from going of and getting things, it just
doesn't store it anywhere.

For me, I would like a way of selectively marking folders for checking
for new mail - mail only appears in some of my folders (mainly as a
result of server side filtering), the vast majority either get populated
as a result of Evo filters, or things get put there manually.  At the
moment Evo takes ages to sort itself out when I first start it because
it goes through all my subscribed folders looking for new mail - I don't
want to untick the 'Check for new messages in all folders' because there
are some folders that I want to check - I don't want to unsubscribe the
folders because I use the (unchanging) information in them.

Do you use Maildir-based IMAP?
