Hi
The title says it all I suppose. Google's not been my best friend on this occasion as I can't seem to find what I'm looking for.
I have an imap account with gmail and google calendar and I use thunderbird and lightning to access them. Clearly the main attraction is to access them from anywhere via a browser. However, it would be nice if everything would work offline. Mail works great in thunderbird and it appears to save them for offline use. Lightning is a different matter, however, as it always starts with a blank calendar and often the data takes quite some time to load. If I'm offline I see nothing.
I have just discovered Lightnings experimental cache function. From my brief experience of it it seems to work okay. However, is there a better way I wonder? I'm thinking along the lines of having Lightning access a calendar on my HDD which is the one displayed (so it's up and running straight away ) which I can then sync with the google calendar. Is this feasible? If so, I'd really appreciate a how-to as I can't seem to find anything about it (which makes me wonder whether it's doable.
TIA
