Re: POP Peeper will not delete Pop 3 email ?

sportman12 -- lakrsrool's assessment is correct, and I think that PP is working as expected. If you're running Thunderbird, then it is likely accessing the account before POP Peeper and deleting the messages from the server. POP Peeper will reflect the messages that are still in the server, not necessarily what's in Thunderbird which stores its own local copies of the messages that it has downloaded.
What you should do to see that it's working is:
1) Exit Thunderbird
2) Send your email address a test message
3) Wait for POP Peeper to retrieve the message
Also, you should consider changing your polling interval, which you've currently set to 2 minutes (main menu: Tools / Options / Mail Check). Many email services don't like people hitting their servers that often and it could get your account suspended. A minimum of 10 minutes is recommended.
