Hi Wayne,
As far as I can tell, the "leave messages on server" option is specific to a POP account setup.

I have tried to set up my testing Gmail account on Thunderbird60 as a POP account but gmail won't let me. I have the gmail account set up as an IMAP account, no problem. It let me set up a second account with the POP settings but gmail would not accept the password.

I don't know how to find another email address that I can set up with POP. I don't want to try this on my real account because I don't want to uncheck the "leave messages on server" box with my thousands of messages. I truly want to keep them on the server.

I am stuck regarding testing this ticket further.
I tried to set up a testing Yahoo account but they insist on having a mobile number.

What else can I do for you on this?
Sorry.
G
