Does anybody know how I can trick my 10.2 Mail.app preferences into working again for "Remove from Server" status? I have it set to remove messages off the server once they are moved from my Inbox; however, that doesn't work at all. I think the only one that works for my needs (and I don't like) is to remove immediately once the mail is downloaded. It used to work, but it has recently stopped that functionality....

Thanks!

Nobody else is experiencing this by chance?

I get it with the httpmail plugin installed, I have to sometimes go in and set it back, seems to happen when i repair permissions, or change something in the other mail accounts.

But simply going back and editing the prefs to go back the way you want them fixes the issue? Not for me if so.

I know what you mean, it keeps reoccurring, I thought I had it pinned down to maybe me repairing permissions, or clearing out the system cache, but it happens randomly now. I end up just going in now and again just to check it's set right. Bummer.
