Vista - Windows Mail - Inbox opened mail disappears?

[Guest]

Hi - this is a super discussion group - thanks all.

My question is - when I receive an email it will stay in my inbox UNTIL I
open it. At that point - after I read it and close it - it literally
disappears - not even to my deleted folder - it just disappears altogether.
My only folder that seems to maintain emails is my sent folder - so I "send"
emails I receive that I want to keep to my email address so they stay in the
"sent" file. How strange is this!?! I hope I have explained properly -
thanks in advance for any help you can provide - I appreciate it!
