Dear Beej and Cousins, This is a very good point about conserving server space. Also, I was unaware until a couple of years ago that I was needlessly storing copies of my e-mail at the server. I thought once I had retrieved my e-mail it was taken off the server. However, this is not always so. When you are setting up your service with your local server, make sure you check off the boxes that allow you to do this or not. Love, Your Cousin, Carolyn
