              downloading emails and storing them locally for offline reading, categorizing, searching and drafting. “Caching” usually just means if you opened the app with connection, it won’t go bonkers and will probably let you finish your immediate task + some basic functionality if you lose it. Can’t close the app though.

          I turned my WiFi off and opened the app it was just a white screen. I suppose its beta still. But my dream is to keep a local copy of all my mail just got a cache.
