Downloading the email off the server does not delete it off the server, that's a
different
POP command, which OE hides from you. Most POPs have a fixed size allowed for
your mailbox, and when it's filled, the box either refuses or drops the incoming
email.
For speed, and real virus protection, choose delete off server and do not
download from
server.

That one i don't know, since OE want to hide what it does from us anyhow.
