On Thunderbird 24.6, I can't say to leave messages on the server when I download or delete. Why? Where is this area which was in older versions?

The messages seem to leave the server after I the download or remove them and they are not visible to the user of the joint account. There was to be a check on previous versions of TBird to leave messages on the server, it has now disappeared, or I can't find it because it's been moved.

This option is at Tools-Account Settings-ServerSettings but is available only if the account is set up as a pop account. Since IMAP accounts are all server based messages are still on the server, and this option is not necessary.

    How can I get Outlook 2003 and 2007, to leave a copy of message on the server? I use Outlook 2003 and it keeps pulling messages out of my email account, I want at least a copy to be left there so that I can access it from anywhere and not just a computer. Thank you.

    Hi Ross WA,

    The concept behind Exchange is an inbox synchronized on all devices (computers, phones, PDA...) and you do not allow to leave messages on the server when it is in an Exchange environment. For more information on leave messages on a mail server, you can visit the following link:
    Microsoft Answers provides no support for Microsoft Exchange, even if you can post a question in the TechNet Forums here: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/exchangesvrclients/threads
    I also recommend to contact who manages your Exchange Server as they know your specific Exchange Setup better.
    I hope this information helps and thank you for using Microsoft Answers!

  • Why Thunderbird leaving messages on my server even though I have an IMAP account?

    I did some research online and tried all the solutions. Some descriptions say that IMAP accounts always leave messages on the server because they have to, and others which contradict. I am really confused and frustrated. I just want to know what I have to do to open my messages on my computer, delete them if I want, but know that they are always on my Comcast server, if I want to access it later.

    The part you are missing is that the IMAP protocol is based on the e-mail server. You simply display messages remotely on your computer or other devices. If you delete an email you're disconnected from the server. This is why there is no option to leave Message on the server as it is in a pop account. The messages are ONLY on the server until you do something different with them as move a copy to local folders.
    If you want to keep a copy of this message to your local device, you must first move a copy of the message in a folder under local folders.
    When you are sure that the message is in this local folder and you can access it, then you can remove safely from the server.

  • Thunderbird deletes the messages from the server if I said not to do so.

    I use a POP3 server and have 'leave messages on the server - until I delete"checked but Thunderbird is still deleting messages from the server before my other e-mail viewer gets it.

    If my other program (from MR2ICE under OS2 on another machine) Gets the first messages, I'll see them on both machines.

    If Thunderbird 'em first I don't get them on the other machine, and, when I check via webmail, they aren't there.

    Thank you.

    If you want to see messages on several machines, POP is not the best choice. You choose to use POP, or is it you imposed by the e-mail provider?

    I don't have a job here POP account to check with, but you can try with the option ' until I have delete ' unchecked? You doing anything with messages, such as moving them to another folder?

    I've never been confident with the way that ' until I have remove the ' works; If a message has been moved out of the Inbox to another folder, and you remove it, a request to delete the message always spread on the server?

    With IMAP, by moving a message to a folder in account to somewhere the IMAP server can not see it is actually a deletion; the server can no longer see the message, so syncs by removing its own copy of this message. I haven't checked through what a POP server is in similar circumstances.

  • Set up Thunderbird to always delete messages from the server

    I want Thunderbird to delete all messages on the server everytime I open the program and collect the messages. More specifically, when I move a message read in a folder I don't want a copy of this folder or message on the server. How one who accomplishes?

    Where is the folder to which you move the message?

    Move your messages to local folders in Thunderbird and they will be stored on your computer and deleted the folder.

    My guess is that your account is configured to use the IMAP protocol and you would be more comfortable with pop.

  • How can I get TB automatically delete messages on the server and NOT remove TB?

    If you want that deleted mail from the server that you want to delete the account and start over with the pop Protocol, although IMAP is perfectly adapted to the use of phones and tablets and desktop computers all on behalf of a mail.

  • I can't have the deleted messages from the server after that they landed in my box in. There was a checkbox in the settings of the server to "leave messages on server".

    My other 2 accts in THB have the checkbox to remove the message from the server. they are configured as a POP mail server The new account is IMAP if this has any bering.

    There. With IMAP, all mail is handled on the server. You can move messages from the server to your 'Local folders' account if that's what you want to do.
