·         from tools menu select option accounts.

·         select e-mail account wish edit clicking on account listed on left menu.

·         at bottom of account details select advanced tab 

·         you find option "remove copy server after retrieving a message"

·         you can uncheck option .

 

if select option, first program receive able see message , deleted right server after received.
