| | Deleted emails disappear I noticed that, when I delete a message in my IMAP inbox folder, it is... gone. No trace of it in the "Deleted items" folder, either on the server or the local one in the "Storage Folders". Any ideas as to why ?? Thanks. Mike |

What exactly are you doing? Turn on troubleshooting logging for IMAP. What does it show that is happening? Quote: > Thanks. > > Mike HTH Robert Aldwinckle --- |
