Ned: YES - YES.
I have felt that way for years.
In response to to Ted's concerns about off-line.
I use SeaMonkey (a Thunderbird spin) for my email. When I setup a mail
account with it, one of the options is for it to cache the email account
for offline usage.
I would think this is mostly a client issue. In a future protocol, when
checking for new message data, pull all of the summary data, and
optionally all of the body parts. Its a client issue. Save the data, or
not. If you pull it all, then the client is free to save it, or not.
