I think I understand enough now to stop bothering you on this subject. K9 is set to 'leave the message on the server'. My computer Email program, on my primary computer, leaves that option unchecked. So I can get the Email on K9 first, and then when I retrieve it on my primary computer, it is deleted from the server.
