Good afternoon. Can I disable this default option “Keep messages for this account on this computer”? I installed thunderbird on a terminal server. I configured autoconfig. I want the user to enter only email and password, and mailbox is configured but only email headers are downloaded. I found on github policy-templates, but it doesn't have this option.
