Hello. Does RainLoop support pushing mail to the client server (where RainLoop is installed) to free up space on the mail server? For example how it is done in Thunderbird.

Hello, I think it is better that rainloop does not save the mails locally. Imagine that the users using rainloop decide to do it, the consequence is that the disk partition of the server could very quickly be full.

When the mail server has a very small user quota, then saving messages locally would be a much better solution than deleting mail from the server permanently. In addition, you can always make an option: on / off saving letters locally, as well as a quota of the local storage of letters for 1 user. It also all depends on how many users are served by 1 mail client, maybe 100 GB will be used up in 5 years (I have accumulated 29 GB of emails since 2017 year).
