Well, receiving ALL mails again, might not be too handy, but 14 days is a
quite short time.
So can i change the pop3 settings so old emails are stored for e.g. 3 months
instead of 14 days?
And just curious, where can i disable the configuration that pop3 deletes
received messages?

Well I am the admin for now, but when business gets more successful i might
hire someone who can set up the email server the right way; someone who
knows what he is doing. But for now, as long as everything works its good.
