Meaning of offline mode and how it works

Offline mode is a special state of your email program in which it's not connected to the Internet. You can do your usual work, such as reading messages in your Inbox and replying to them. As soon as you turn off offline mode, everything will be synchronized or sent.
This feature is especially useful when you have limited data available or slow internet connection.
