This is determined by your server I think. IMAP by itself does not expunge the messages from the mailbox unless told so by the client or server setings.

BTW, I just spent the last month building a C# POP3 and IMAP client module for a project here. I have gotten to know the process well. I can POP3 manually in my sleep. I never want to see another RFC, for at least the next week. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Enterprise web applications, build robust, secure scalable apps today - Try it now ColdFusion Today ColdFusion 8 beta - Build next generation apps Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/message.cfm/messageid:240434 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5
