leaving messages on the server

Dear All,
I use vista mail as a secondary e-mail programme.
How to I set it to leave the message on the POP3 server and not delete it
fom the server when I delete the message in vista mail?
This owuld leave my prmary network computer free to collect the mail.
Please advise.
Regards
AMcF

Re: leaving messages on the server

If both computers are using the same e-mail address, on both machines:

Tools | Accounts | Mail | Properties | Advanced - Check: Leave a copy of
messages on the server.

On one machine only, check to Delete messages after X days to assure the
server does not get clogged up.
