Because the MUA popping the mail is configured to "leave
messages on server". Sometimes it's called "Keep unread messages
on server" or variations on the theme. It's usually configured
in the same place on the MUA as the username and password for
the account.
If the answer only creates more questions for you, you'll
probably find lots of information on search engine now that
you have some decent keywords to use :-)
HANY everybody
