HI Stephen Thanks for the assistance. I already have the Erase Deleted Messages as Never, but its the ‘In Box’ that gets deleted after one month. Thing is I am forever going back to my in box for work, so I really need to keep them all in the In Box. On my MacPro (on El Capitan), the emails stay in the In Box until I delete them, which is how I prefer it. Just can’t seem to work out how to set up the iMac in the same way.
