No, by default, Evolution will "cache" IMAP email locally, but the "master copies" are always stored on the server. If you have your IMAP server also running as a POP server, and you are connecting to it via the pop service, then by default all email will be downloaded and stored locally, which is what you seem to be describing to us. Can you go in to the accounts section of Evolution, and tell us what you have set in there for the Account Type. > > Are you SURE you have an IMAP server as apposed to a POP server? > > Dovecot ? You do not seem to sure here, I am not familiar with the Dovecot mail server, as I use cyrus-imapd at work. Some one else will have to pipe up and provide assistance here. -- Douglas Furlong Systems Administrator Firebox.com T: 0870 420 4475 F: 0870 220 2178
