I have several att.net email accounts that I have set up on my Droid4 without problem except that "push" does not work with them. If I set them up as Yahoo accounts, but manually enter all the info, it sets them up fine and email is pushed, but when I delete an email on the phone, it deletes it on the server. There doesn't seem to be a way to change a setting so that the emails are not deleted. Can anyone help?

So you want to set up an email account on your phone that does NOT delete the email on the server when you delete it on your phone?
No. I know how to do that using the "other" category, but that won't "push". I want to know if there is a way to stop a Yahoo email account from automatically deleting emails from the server because Yahoo accounts will "push" emails to the phone. It apparently is an IMAP vs POP3 issue which I don't understand since the ATT accounts that are powered by Yahoo are POP3 and they set up fine, but they delete emails from the server when I delete them on the phone and I would like them not to be deleted in Yahoo.
