How to configure Windows Mail so E-Mails get DL and ERASED from Se

How do i configure "Windows Mail" so that the E-Mails on the Server get
downloaded and erased afterwards from the Server (pop.gmx.net) ?
I tried configuring myself, ending up losing all E-Mails on the Server and
"Windows Mail 6.0" did not downloaded a single E-Mail.

I tried configuring the E-Mail rules as follows:

Delete E-Mail from Server after beeing recieved.

But I did not recive the Mails on my Local Computer...

Please be so kind to tell me what went wrong.

No need to use Message Rules, remove that Rule now.

Go to tools>accounts>select your account>Advanced tab, remove the check mark
from "leave copy of message on server">apply>OK.

What the message rule is doing is deleting it from the server before you
download it, so that is why you aren't getting the messages. Delete the
message rule, as that is what WinMail normally does (it deletes the messages
after downloading), unless you have it set not to where mac indicated in the
settings.
