Delete emails on server

[sam81300]

How do I get my emails to delete on the server when I delete them on my Infuse? Is that even possible? I have a Live account (Hotmail), and a Ymail account (Yahoo). Is it also possible to place them in folders that I already have set up on the server?

Thanks,

This is a question i also have. I guess no one knows.

open your inbox and go to settings,account settings,inbox settings,delete email from server.

I cannot locate the "delete from server" option on my Samsung Infuse!
( I have already set up the accounts. )
I got to Incoming Server settings and they are all there on my phone except for "delete from server". It just isn't there. So when I delete an email from the Mail app, it stays on the server which I DON'T want.

I have installed K-9 mail, and it has the correct settings that allowed me to delete from the server. But not the built in Mail app?

ANY IDEAS?

Thank
Newt

Incoming server settings...at the bottom, possibly hidden by the keyboard.

Nope, that's not it. ( you can scroll to see what's beneath the keyboard)

I have:

Username
Password
IMAP server
Port
Security Type
IMAP path prefix

THat's it folks! After that it is supposed to have" Delete from server" BUT IT's NOT THERE!

I'm using the Yahoo Android email app and when I delete the email on the app, it is deleted from the Yahoo Mail server.

It may not work like this via the stock email app. I had this same problem with my iPhone where it would not delete from server unless using the specific Yahoo app.

That's totally different from my Infuse.
