No email messages remain on original server

[Guest]

windows mail does not appear to provide the option of leaving copies of
messages on the original server after being downloaded into windows mail on
my pc Unlike like outlook express or outlook . Please let me know how I can
accomplish this task.

That option seems to only be available for Pop accounts. Is there a
similar option some where for IMAP accounts?

WinMail does not delete any messages from an IMAP account until you use
purge to empty Deleted Items on the server.

Oh yeah. I should've remembered that. Thanks.

I am familiar with how to access pop accounts from any microsoft program like
express or windows mail. I have had no problem in the past with express.
With Vista and Windows Mail I have the option checked in Advanced features to
leave a copy of the message on the server. However, everytime I access
Windows Mail it downloads the message and does not leave it on the server. I
have a Gateway and they are supposed to support the operating system but they
dont have an answer other than to re-install windows which I do not want to
do. has anyone seen this issue as well?
