The checkbox works just fine for me but there is also a popup which is quite handy allowing you to decide when and if to delete messages from the server.

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
