(You probably don't have to own a Treo to answer my question.)

So I finally purchased a Treo 650. I had a talk with a friend of mine over all the specifics, but I had one detail that I wanted to get into specifically.

I have a .Mac account and several POP accounts that I can access via-the web, but I set them up as POP accounts in Mail.app.

I would like to access all these email accounts on my Treo, but I want all those emails to remain on the server so I can still download them to my Mac later. How would I go about setting this up?

My friend said I should change all of my POP accounts to IMAP. That sounds great, but does this mean that all the emails will remain on the server until I manually delete them? I like how in Mail I can set it "delete messages from server when removed from the inbox."

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
