Until recently once I downloaded my mail into Windows Live mail it dissappeared from my Yahoo Inbox. Now it stays there until I go back to BT Yahoo Inbox and delete it. I can't find an ooption to change this.

Can anyone help?

It looks like your advanced e-mail settings has got a tick in the option to "Leave a copy on the server"

Thanks for the response. Sounds logical but is that a tick in BT Yahoo e-mail settings or Windows Live Mail settings. I cannot find such an option in either.

In your Windows Live Mail go to the Tools menu - then select Accounts. Highlight your mail account and click Properties. On the Advanced tab untick the box beside Leave a copy of messages on server - click Apply and OK.
