I've done this by accident, more so than on purpose.
There have been times when I've attempted to send an e-mail (in Yahoo but I don't think the provider is necessary to the point) and it hasn't gone through. I get some message that says, "unable to send, will send when possible". I've gone on and read other e-mail, then I notice the icon starts spinning at the bottom of the mail window and I get the swoosh sound that indicates the message was sent. I don't know how to recreate this on purpose, but there is the ability to send pending e-mail at a later time somewhere.

Perhaps no one answered because no one has tried what you are asking. Why don't you try it and let us know how it works? You will need to set up your gmail account to be received on the iPad. Once the mail is downloaded, you can turn the wifi off. As for being able to answer the emails and then turn wifi back on to send those answers, please try it and let us know. I would imagine that the iPad will save your messages in your sent box and deliver them as soon as a signal is received, but I really don't know.
Thank You,

So-called "global warming" is just a secret ploy by wacko tree-huggers to
make America energy independent, clean our air and water, improve the fuel
efficiency of our vehicles, kick-start 21st-century industries, and make our
cities safer and more livable. Don't let them get away with it!

Maybe it was a dumb question, but an answer would have been
reassuring. Fortunately I checked into our hotel in Rome and found
that the wifi cost was 5€ for three hours so I used the Gmail app and
used online time answering mails. However it would be nice to know if
I could use the iPad Mail app offline without downloading a GB or so
of archived mail via the IMAP interface.
Can anyone advise me?
