As far as I am concerned, such setting does not exist from a mail client. Things must be changed on the server side IE. Gmail.com if that is the email provider.
I have seen settings in the past for pop3 where emails will be moved to the mail client but keep the copy on the server side. If you want emails to be deleted on the mail client and server side, imap configuration is what you want. This can be changed on the server side via settings.

Ditto when you move a message to a folder. Until the messages are actually deleted from your server, they’ll continue to be downloaded. -- Christopher (AKA CJ) Chaltain at Gmail From: viphone@googlegroups.com <mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com> <viphone@googlegroups.com <mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com> > On Behalf Of Dennis Long Sent: Friday, August 28, 2020 12:25 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com <mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com> Subject: RE: an email or gmail question In the mail settings there is a option for how long to keep the email. I would also look at a third party email client.

I am trying to figure out why when my husband goes through his emails on his phone and deletes them and even empties the trash folder, when he goes back in to read more, these emails come back. Is there anywhere on the phone that you can turn off to save a copy of messages on server? It looks like that is what is happening. He is using pop 3. Or do you have any other ideas? Thanks in advance for any thoughts.
