Leaving Messages on the Server

If you are using multiple computers to check your email, you may wish to leave email messages on the server so you can safely check your mail on one computer, and then download it later on another. It also assures that you can have a copy for later use via Misk Webmail. Below is a list of common email clients and instructions on how to set up your email client to leave messages on the server for each one.

Note: We recommend that you set your email client to delete the messages from the server after a set amount of time, like 1 week. If messages are never deleted from our mail server your mailbox may become full, even with the generous amount of storage space we offer.

Misk Webmail

To leave messages on the server using Misk Webmail, simply leave them in the Inbox. Please note that any emails that are moved out of the Inbox cannot be put back in for later download.
