Yes, which means you can have multiple perspectives to the same mailbox, 
I like that. It allows me to use different clients based on where I am 
and what I'm doing - and see the same email. Also, for the fulltext 
search to work, or the email replica storing content on the server side 
is great! ( Specially since I run that end myself)

experience is subject to network conditions.

How much email do you get ? whats disk space cost these days ? my 
mailbox is about 42 GB, and i don't mind one bit. Being able to use 
email properly, to do almost everything except delivery while being on 
the move given the crap state of mobile network in the UK, is a major win.
