Go to the tools menu and from there go into accounts. go into properties on the account you use and then go to the advanced page. You should then find a checkbox which says "leave a copy of message on server". Uncheck this and the messages will be removed from the server once they have been downloaded.

I am using Windows 7 with Windows Live Mail. It is going Mad! It is continually downloading emails after I have deleted them! I am up to 800 now and it keeps happening over and over again! I have emptied the deleted folder again and again, but they just come back! I have restored back to 22nd but it still happens! Should I "repair" it? If so, how? I can't find it listed in the programmes! Please advise urgently!
