10. From the Internet E-mail Settings dialog box, click the Advanced tab. 11. Click to clear Leave a copy of messages on server. Click OK.

Note: By disabling the Leave a copy of messages on the server option, your e-mail client will automatically download your Inbox e-mail messages to your local computer. We recommend you leave this option disabled to prevent old e-mail messages from taking up your hosting account's limited disk space, thereby reducing the chance that your account will experience an overage.
