Sounds like you're getting imap and pop3 confused.  imap doesn't download
mail at all, but works with it on the server.  Unless one explicitly deletes
one or more messages, they're not ever automatically deleted.  A pop3 client
downloads a copy of everything and the mail is managed locally, in which
case this is a concern.  Courier IMAP serves imap.  courierpop3d serves
pop3.
