Tools menu>accounts>select your account>properties>advanced tab.

Leave a copy of each message on the server.

Remember to set it to clear messages from the server after
a reasonable number of days, or your server mail box will possibly fill up,
and
reject any new incoming mail.

Which mail provider? Some don't honor that setting.

Did you check the setting that counts:
Go to Tools, Accounts, select your mail account, Properties,
Advanced, check the box for "Leave a copy of messages on server."

Try removing your account from the wife's machine and then close and reopen
WinMail and then add it back again and before checking the mail, change the
settings under Tools | Options | Advanced.
