That's a key difference between IMAP clients (like squirrelmail) and POP clients. IMAP clients *always* leave mail on the server and the messages are always managed there or kept in sync with the client. POP clients download from the server by default but can be configured to leave a *copy* on the server, no real synchronization between the client and the server is done other than downloading new messages and possibly deleting older messages. > In addition on dovecot.conf I > edit the following: > > # Don't try to set mails non-recent or seen with POP3 sessions. > This is > # mostly intended to reduce disk I/O.

I can't imagine why you'd want to do this anyway.
