Regardless of that settings, it's still supposed to download all the
mail from the Inbox (and optionally Bulk) folder at least once. But it
shouldn't Delete the messages from the server.

But if you have the same account set up more than once in the same
program or in other mail programs or on other PCs or devices, they ALL
must have the leave a copy option set. It only takes one access from
any where without the leave a copy option to delete all the mail from
the server.
