In Outlook Express, under Options -> Maintenance -> Troubleshooting, check the Mail box. Receive your mail via POP3. Find the POP3 log in your mail store folder. It will show the commands that Outlook Express sent to the server. If there is a DELE, then you know that it is deleting your mail from the server. Alternatively, login to the POP3 server manually using telnet: $ telnet pop3.example.com 110 USER [EMAIL PROTECTED] PASS password LIST RETR 1 QUIT Do this a second time. See if it actually deleted the message. It sounds like you have either a buggy or incorrectly configured client. -- David Phillips <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://david.acz.org/

First of all, the server just does what the client tells it to do. If the client sends the DELE (delete) command, the server will delete the message. If the client doesn't send the DELE (delete) command, the server will *not* delete any message. In qmail, when a message is read, it is moved from the "new" folder to the "cur" folder. So as long as your mail client (Outlook Express) doesn't send the DELE command (i.e. the "leave a copy of messages on server" is checked), then it will remain on the server in the "cur" folder.

Thank you all for the suggestions. I did do the client configuration as you described as below b4, but no effects. really why ? Outlook Express -> Tools -> Accounts -> Mail -> Properties -> Advanced > and tick the box "Leave copy of message on server" If server can keep the copy where does qmail store still /home/vpopmail/domains/peak-mobile.com/lucy.liu/Maildir/new/ ? thanks again.
