hmm, I don't do email on my palm, so I am not familiar with that aspect. I
fired up kpilot and I don't see any reference to email. Don't you have
a "normal" computer for email that is set to not delete emails from the
server? Since I don't use this feature, I'll let someone more knowledgeable
answer.
I did find this page:
http://www.sourcepole.ch/2006/9/6/linux-desktop-organizer-software-for-the-palm-pilot
that mentions email sync:
#
# Email syncing capabilities (via POP3 & sendmail)
# SmartSync backing up modified data even for databases KPilot doesn't
recognize
