I deleted the email accounts from my other computers a few days ago when I first started to troubleshoot this problem. &nbsp;I spoke with TW earlier in the week and at length today but they are unable to pinpoint the problem. I also spoke to RIM and they are convinced that it is a “server” problem and my email is somehow being “pulled’ from the server and deleted. I have given up and am abandoning my road runner email for a new Gmail account. Thank you for responding to this question but I guess it is a moot point now.

Interactions between email servers and clients are governed by email protocols. The three most common email protocols are POP, IMAP and MAPI. Most email software operates under one of these (and many products support more than one).  The correct protocol must be selected, and correctly configured, if you want your email account to work.

Email Protocols

An email client, email reader or more formally mail user agent (MUA) is a computer program used to access and manage a user's email. A web application that provides message management, composition, and reception functions is sometimes also considered an email client, but more commonly referred to as webmail.

Internet / Email Software

A server is a computer program or a machine that waits for requests from other machines or software (clients) and responds to them. This architecture is called the client–server model. The clients may run on the same computer or may connect to the server over a network. The purpose of a server is to share data or hardware and software resources among clients. Typical computing servers are database servers, file servers, mail servers, print servers, web servers, game servers, and application servers.
