Based on this thread there is no way to instruct current versions of K-9 to leave emails on the server when fetching emails using POP3. I do not want to use IMAP (as Seth suggests) due to the confusion when multiple email clients on multiple devices are used to view and manage my email. I'm concluding that k-9 can't be safely used for my purposes.
I will kill the current installation process on my phone so as not to risk data loss on my mail server.
