Btw, evolution help says (about the “Automatically syncronize remote
mail locally”):

If you check this option, Evolution fetches the headers as well as the
body of the message simultaneously. In this case, the time taken to open
a message is comparatively less. In addition, you can download the mail
for reading them offline, when you have checked this option.

That means *only* when the message is indeed selected/opened, not in
other cases. To synchronize all mails in a folder without opening all of
them, I think you should go with the folder properties (at least I do
that here).
