That way they stay in your att.net Mail Inbox rather than going to the Trash folder.' I use Windows Mail (don't laugh!) so from the menu bar at the top go to Tools>Accounts.>clicked on my mail account>Properties.>Advanced tab> Delivery section and clicked the box 'Leave a copy of messages on the server' - I chose 90 days as the 'remove from server' setting.

I dug around AT&T online support and found the issue and the fix - here's a cut 'n' paste - 'Keep a copy of my email messages on the server When you choose to have your email delivered to you via an email client, the att.net email messages are normally deleted from the server and placed in the att.net Mail Trash folder. A folder had been created on the server called 'Trash' - but not really the Trash folder where deleted emails go - and all my incoming emails were in the Trash folder. Sure enough, directly on the server, there were NO emails in my inbox at all. Anyway, I got the idea of logging directly into my AT&T email account, in this case an 'sbcglobal' account - same as yahoo mail. Although I don't think I experienced any email outages during this time, I am wondering now whether servers were reset or power-cycled, causing a refresh of settings that I had previously never touched.

This started happening to my Apple devices after Hurricane Sandy swept through.
