Hi Marie. Thanks for your message. I'll try and do as you say.
Can you tell me how to stop my mail from staying on the server as when I delete my messages when in windows, they get deleted off the server. Mind you, if I were in Microsoft outlook, I'd have to select all as they would be marked for deletion and I'd have to go to edit and perge them off the server. Can the same happen on Apple Mac? Hope someone can tell me. Kawal.
