You can set the option to download mail for x amount of days, how much data to download per message, whether or not you want to download attachments, max size of an attachment to download etc.

To set these options, go to the "Account Settings" for the IMAP account you'd like to edit. For my folder view, I'll go to my Gmail account folder, tap and hold the folder until the context menu comes up, then select Account Settings.

Once the Settings:Server Folders window opens, select Folders in the Server Settings section. For your particular account, you will see a list of folders such as Drafts, INBOX, Sent, etc. Select INBOX then click the Details button at the bottom. The second option "Only mail from the last x days" is what you're looking for. Set that value to your preference.

You'll notice some icons toward the bottom of the window, click each of those to become familiar with the additional folder options Flexmail provides.

I've been using FLexmail for about 6 months and am quite happy with it. I just wish it could be integrated into WinMo a little better, especially since I have a Touch Pro and like using the features of TF3D.
