NetMail Preferences Cache Tab

The NetMail Preferences Cache tab controls the messages and information that NetMail stores locally when you disconnect from the mail server. If you plan to disconnect and work offline, you should probably cache more information. If you always work while connected, you should set these options not to cache anything, so that you can disconnect quickly.

Cache entire folder list?

Automatically loads your list of folders into the memory cache when you disconnect from the mail server. By caching your folder list, you can move and copy messages when you use NetMail in the disconnected mode.

Cache messages of type
