I've done a search of the forum for an answer to this question, but didn't find one. i'm using a POP account with Mail, and can't figure out how to get it to delete the messages from the server. Any ideas?

Go the Mail Preferences, to the Accounts section. Select your user account and click on Edit. Your user information will show up on the first panel (it's probably fine). Now select the second panel behind it called Options. On that screen you will find a radio button that will allow you to delete your mail from the server. Its off by default so you have to enable it.
