Email management workflow

[Jimmy Thrasibule <thrasibule.jimmy@gmail.com>]

Hello,

I have a bunch of email accounts that I connect to using the POP3
protocol and Thunderbird. This is mainly done to keep the different
servers clean of emails and also to keep a backup of all my emails on my
workstation. Of course, all the emails within my workstation are also
backed up regularly.

Now I'm like the young guys and I get an Android phone. My problem here
is about sent email. I can configure my Android phone to leave the
emails on the server and then remove them later from the server using my
workstation. But as sent emails are saved locally, I will lose the
emails sent from my phone.

I know about IMAP but one of my concerns is to being able to have access
without an Internet connection and I also like the fact to clean out all
my emails from the servers.

Any idea?
