Laserboy is an unknown quantity at this point
Messages not being deleted from server

Recently a friend who also has a blueyonder e-mail address asked if I'd looked at my e-mail recently using web mail. He claimed that all his old e-mails were still listed (He uses Thunderbird). As I use Outlook Express all the time, I couldn't tell, but when I looked via web mail just now, every e-mail back to the beginning of January is there.
The "Leave a copy of messages on server" box in my Outlook Express accounts advanced properties tab is unchecked, so I assumed that it would be deleting the messages as they were downloaded, but apparently not.
Is this correct or am I missing a trick somewhere?
