how do i move the email so a "separate folder"??

Only a POP account has that Delivery section.
Your account must be an IMAP account.
With an IMAP account, your local emails are a mirror copy of what's on
the server. If you delete an email from the server, it will be deleted from
the IMAP folder on your computer. The only way to avoid that is to move
the local emails to a separate folder that is not part of the IMAP account
folders.

If you don't want mail to be left on the server just remove the tick from
the box 'Leave a copy of messages on server' in step 6.

without loosing it in Windows Mail.

I want the option of NOT keeping a copy of email on my server (like it has
in Outlook when you first set up accounts). Where do I find this??

thanks for helping!
