When the persistence feature is enabled **and** no persistence media is found locally, the user would be asked for a server address + login, password + encryption passphrase.
Possible remote storage include:
- IMAP
- sftp
- [Syncany](http://www.syncany.org/) (similar to Dropbox, but data is
encrypted locally) supports many storage types, including IMAP

- [s3ql](http://code.google.com/p/s3ql/) Full featured, FUSE-based, filesystem that is synced remotely. Features excellent performance with intermittent connectivity, deduplication, compression, encryption, and full linux filesystem support (hard links, attrs, etc). Written in python. For remote storage, uses S3 or OpenStack.
