It seems like POP3 only deletes mail when called to do so by the POP client. I am not sure how the IMAP server does this. I can only say that as part of an experiment I stopped deleting mails on one account in June, and when I recently started using IMAP with this account, all mails back to May are still present.

But yes there Is a webmail system, but there is not a lot of settings to mess around with.
