Scott Jibben E-Mail SignatureThanks for the advice.  I don’t think changing the 
password will matter.  None of the mail clients run background processes when 
they’re shut down.  So I shut them all down but one (rotating which one is on), 
and the problem always recurs.  That’s why I concluded it wasn’t the mail 
client.

I wonder if it’s possible to log all actions, such as deleting messages, on a 
mail store? Along with where the action originated, of course.

I still wonder if it’s possible the server is doing this itself.

Try changing your password and one-by-one adding the devices back until the 
deleting behavior resumes.  That will help you identify which device is your 
problem.

  This is mostly a brain-teaser for which I have no answer.  I've noticed in my 
own mail account where I've got a couple of emails that keep getting 
automatically deleted.  One message is from myself to myself and the other is a 
business email from someone who sends me emails all the time without problem.  
What happens is that if I undelete these two emails, within a few minutes they 
are deleted again. It's kind of a subtle trick if you have a big Inbox, but 
they just vanish.  Then, if I search for them, I find they're still there but 
deleted.  I undelete them and a few minutes later they're gone. 

  I use IMAP to access this account from various systems, while the server runs 
SM 11.x (haven't got around to upgrading to 12.x) with Declude.  For clients, I 
mostly use Windows Live Mail, although I have K-9 on my Android phone.  My 
first thought was that this was due to some sort of automatic process in one of 
the client apps (computer at work, plus ,at home, plus various portable 
devices), but by process of elimination (shutting down the mail client on each 
device except one), I find that the message still keep getting deleted. Plus, I 
can't find any settings in the client apps that would cause they (they all send 
spam to the Junk Mail folder, plus these aren't being classified as spam). 

  So that makes me wonder if there is anyway this could be happening on the 
server. Maybe a corruption in the message content itself? 

  Any ideas? 

  Thanks,
