Accessing school mail with POP, delete from server?????

[thechidz]

Hi,

I used to access my graduate school email account solely with IMAP, and it worked great until I started to get errors when sending mail.

So I set up apple mail and iPhone mail to access it with POP as well. Now, when I log onto my email account from the web, all of my emails that I accessed with POP are gone???? they are also gone from my IMAP access. I still have them in POP so they couldn't have disappeared completely. Is there anyway to get them back on my school's server?

thanks

To keep it from happening (in Mail.app) Preferences-->Account-->Advanced--> uncheck "Remove copy from server...", or at least set it to a long time. Other email apps have a similar setting somewhere.

As for ones that your mail reader has already deleted... I don't think there's a way other than forwarding them all to yourself.
