Hi All - early days with the Mac so please bear with me...

I'm trying to set up Mac Mail with a Yahoo account using POP.

I want to receive email from Yahoo, but I want to keep the emails on Yahoo until I delete them from Mail, after which I want them deleted from Yahoo.

Now in MS Outlook, I would simply go to the account's advanced Tab and check "leave copy of message on server", and check the sub option "delete from server when deleted from 'Deleted Items Folder'"

i cant find any way of doing this on Mail. Hope you can help.

Thanks in advance

I think this is what you are looking for in the Mail preferences.

Even with a magnifying glass, I can't read anything on that thumbnail.
Seriously. :Grimmace:

You click it and you can't read it? Looks fine here.

Thanks for the replies.

That doesnt really do what I need it to...
I like to keep messages in my Yahoo mail until I delete them from my laptop - at which point I also want to remove them from the Yahoo mail server. Easy to do in outlook.
Preferences in Mail only allows deletion if I 'move' the mail from Inbox (not the same as delete!) or after a certain period of time....

Unless you have Yahoo Plus (a paid version), you cannot have the mail forwarded.
