I don't know... what came to mind after reading "deletes every email in her inbox" was POP, which pretty much always deletes your remote mail once it's been retrieved. How many millions of people still use POP over IMAP or webmail? Quite a few I would guess.

For 5+ years, I've been downloading my email with fetchmail, which deletes the message on the server. Once a minute. I don't like the thought of my emails sitting in the cloud for too long.
