"CacheOveraggressively", "Automatically Synchronize" and also "DaysBetweenSyncs"
Hi there,
I just found this post because it's about the only thing that comes up when you Google the "CacheOveraggressively" key from the com.apple.mail.plist file. I think you're incorrect in saying it "is only equivalent to the 'Automatically Synchronize' on the advanced account pane" - I already had that ticked, and yet "CacheOveraggressively" was set to "NO". Perhaps changing it to "YES" will cause that tickbox to be flipped, but perhaps checking 'Automatically Synchronize' alone does not affect "CacheOveraggressively"? Anyway, using Plist Editor I have flipped it to "YES" for both my accounts to see what difference it will make, although since I have just upgraded from 10.4.9 to 10.5.5 on this machine, it may be difficult to attribute any changes I see. I have been running 10.5 on my laptop for some time, so will try it on that, too - perhaps it will make it behave better in offline mode? There is also a "DaysBetweenSyncs" key in the plist file. Unrelated to the topic of courier-imap (which I also use - I have always had MAXPERIP set high), I have now set this to 1 for both accounts. I have noticed in the past that when I get up in the morning & read my mail, mailbox unread message-counts are not updated in unread mailboxes (messages are filtered on the server) unless I manually sync. Hopefully this will ensure that I get fresher updates without having to "Send & Receive" manually. Incidentally, for my accounts "DaysBetweenSyncs" were set to different values of 3 & 5, but Googling for that string only returns one other thread, in which posters mention theirs to be set to 21 & 28 days! |
