Justin,

I seem to remember that there is a pop-up button in the Mail menu under mail/preferences where if you choose in the table of your accounts the particular mail account you require, you can then locate a pop-up button which specifies how long - or if at all - you want to keep your messages on the server. You may need to check all possible tabs under the toolbar for your account to find the button.Hope this helps a little.

Hello

I have just obtained a second macbook to complament my macbook pro as
a substitute.

I want to set up my gmail and university mail on my macbook so I can
keep up on that without having to muck through html, but I want the
same messages that I downloaded onto my macbook, to be downloaded to
my macbook pro when I start up using it again.  I would imagine that
this means setting up prefs to prevent it from deleting messages from
the server.  Such a checkbox exists in mail and I have tried it
before, though it didn't work.

Does anybody here have a suggestion as to what I should do?  Perhaps
there is a part to this process that I have missed?

Thank you
Justin Harford
