The client is Foxmail. The emails return to inbox, sent, and trash whenever the Foxmail logo is removed from taskbar down below. This happens of course when Windows downloads security updates overnight and reboots, The strange thing is that these returning emails are dated from April thru November 2015. Doesn't matter if I use the keyboard to delete or the mouse via the Foxmail's direction.
What do you mean "whenever the Foxmail logo is removed"???
The strip running along the bottom of the screen, right-hand corner has a number of icons: Malwarebytes, Security essentials, Cobian backup, Audio speaker, Network symbol (to show if I have Internet access), and a flag to alert the user for any issues. This is Windows 7 by the way.
If I open Foxnews, the red Fox logo appears there also as a shortcut. But when the PC reboots, it disappears and does not come back automatically. You have to bring it back by opening Fox by clicking on the desktop icon. But now, the damn old, deleted emails show up.

How to delete permanently?
Where is the email coming from? Maybe there is a setting in your client checked to leave a copy of the email on the email server?

Copper.net since 2008 or so. Fox has been my newsreader since 2010. No problems whatsoever until this mess. Experimenting now with T-Bird Mozilla. If the Fox issued can't be solved, then it's adios Fox.,,, but it was a good client for awhile.
There is two ways to use an email client, either with POP3 or IMAP. With POP3 the messages are downloaded from the server and store locally however I have sen the option of leaving a copy on the servror deleting it with POP configuration.
With IMAP the messages are stored on the server and can include sent one, deleted etc.
When you are deleting the message you are deleting the local copy, for whatever reason a copy is being left on the server.
