WEBMAIL options? Is there a setting option to stop receiving my email on Cox WebMail?
I do not want to receive my email via WebMail - for privacy concerns. Is there an option or way for a user to disable/enable WebMail from receiving email at a user's choosing? Thanks.

Solution ?? For anyone interested - BlitheSpirit might have one. My desktop mail client 'preferences' has an option that allows the user to remove any downloaded email to be removed "immediately' from the server. That option will prevent WebMail from accessing your email.
I tested it. After setting the option, I sent an email to my address & after receiving it on my desktop, I logged into my WebMail. It was OUT OF SIGHT !!
Credit for the solution ?? I discovered it on Wikipedia by searching for keyword - webmail - & reading the article on Webmail.

Webmail is simply an online portal to your mailbox store on our servers. Your emails when received by us will reside there until they are either deleted via webmail or collected via your email client. The way you set yours up will work fine however note that your new emails will technically still be out there until you check with your email client.
