Some email programs have a time limit on archived mail. You would need to check your email service settings for what it does with archived messages. Normally, one would think if you put it in archive, it would stay there, but that depends on your email server's settings. Things I want to keep, I create a folder and move messages into it.

I put 2 important emails in there expecting them to be there to refer to at anytime as you do to archives until deleted manually. That was 2 months ago, needed to refer to them yesterday, they are no longer there! Disappeared from my phone! More than a bit puzzled and annoyed! Any help very much appreciated! Thanks! The best to all! Marie Sent from my iPhone -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
