This is a silly default behavior. For enterprise I guess it makes sense, but I want to keep my mail local, not shuffle it off to Yet Another Service™. And I certainly want it to SAVE my mail and not delete it by default!
Someone will create a web service that implements a TMTP client to replicate your account in the cloud. That's fine for many consumers, but must not be the default.
I guess the answer is obvious. Sorry, I didn't read this properly. Good work on this!
Thanks for the encouragement!
