Outlook – How to make Outlook 2007 download all messages from the IMAP server

downloadgmailimapmicrosoft-outlook-2007

I am trying to get my gmail mail into Outlook 2007 via its IMAP connector.

It seems that Outlook 2007 only downloads the message headers, not the email messages and not the attachments, unless you specifically click on a message.

How do I make Outlook 2007 download all messages from the IMAP server?

Best Answer

If you drag all the folders off the IMAP server to a local folder, outlook will download all the messages and store them locally. Keep in mind this will also remove those messages from the IMAP server.
