❌ Deleting in IMAP
If your email program is configured to use IMAP to fetch your mail, be aware that if you delete an email in one place, it will be deleted in all places. If you want to delete it from your email account, but still keep a copy somewhere, use local folders in your email program. Make sure those are backed up as well.
