By default no. The client can of course have its own folder structure, but the two are entirely independent. Many clients also allow caching of server folders locally (usually on a per-folder basis). > emails are on server because it is the server. but as i recall, they > are downloaded to client and deleted from server if so configured. I don't know of any client that does that. You may be thinking of POP, which is entirely different. The whole point of IMAP is to keep the master copy on the server where it's accessible from anywhere, and use local copies only as a cache. > years ago, when i was using imap, i filtered on my client, not on > server. That's because standardized server-side filtering never really got going and isn't well-supported by any widely-used client. However in this case we're specifically talking about Gmail, not about some random IMAP server. Although the Gmail implementation of IMAP is slightly quirky, the server-side filtering is effective. The only thing is you have to set it up via the web interface. poc -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
