Even if your client is set to delete mail from the sever the mail will not be deleted until downloading is complete. If something stops the download partway (e.g. a very large email causing a blockage or Norton freezing up like it is wont to) then the mailbox will not be cleared so when you reconect it will start from the first message again. If this is the case deleting the offending mail works 100% of the time.
