I want the emails on the server to delete once I download them on Thunderbird. Is this possible using IMAP with Thunderbird? I don't want emails stored on some remote server. I want to get my emails from Thunderbird after I have received them, and after 10 days remove these read emails from the server while keeping my thunderbird emails on my PC. Please can you help! Cheers

You'll need to use POP3 for that, not IMAP.

Hi, I understand most email clients are not supporting pop3 anymore. could you suggest a solution? Cheers

But Thunderbird DOES support POP3, as do many (most?) email hosts. POP users account for a significant percentage of email users. If you're looking for a solution, possibly it is to change email providers. @Stans is right as rain in this.
