Indeed, I'd be more worried about the client caching the _entire_ folder -
thus reducing the whole point of having it server-based. You may end up
replacing a 1Gb Outlook folder with a 1Gb IMAP cached folder, which may be
as "flakey" as your original problem...

Only experimentation will answer these questions...
