Heya, Radhika. Welcome to TSDN!

I went ahead and split your post into its own thread to make it easier for our Experts to find.

I'm going to go ahead and move this thread to the Misc. Questions forum, where our resident Experts will be better able to help you out.

the answer is yes and no. If you setup your email client to receive your emails from the server what it does it removes them from the server and puts them in your inbox, so the email(s) are already deleted from the server and the only copies are in your inbox. But if you set up your client (can be done in outlook) to leave a copy of the email on the server, it will leave a copy on the server and in your inbox; that way when you delete from your inbox there still is a copy on the server.

I think it would also depend on your mail server. I maintain a server that keeps a copy of ALL incoming and outgoing mail.

So even if you can not get it, the admin probably can!

It depends on your server settings.
contact your system admin for more details on the same.

Is it safe to do what is below? deleting from a resultset while you are processing it? I don't know how dynamic the SQL database is. I assume you get a cursor to live dataset. Even if it is a cursor as opposed to a table, will the cursor's integrity be ruined if the current record is deleted? $q2=mysql_query("SELECT * FROM table1 WHERE id1=5", $link); while ($row2=mysql_fetch_array($q2)) { //do some stuff with resultset...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
