Thank you very much for all the replies above!

Does that mean that even if I don't get online for many years, I still can receive the BTC sent to me years ago when I get online.

Absolutely. This means that you can create a new wallet with new addresses while offline, record an address, encrypt the wallet, delete the original, put it in storage, and pay to it whenever you want and essentially be beaming money into your super secure bitcoin savings account.

Got it! Thanks for your suggestion. Wink

For security, I want to encrypt my wallet.dat, delete the plaint text one, and store the encrypted one in safe place. As a result, I can't keep the client running with this wallet. I wanna know, can I still receive BTC with the address of the wallet?

Sorry for my bad English.
