This is how IMAP and Microsoft Exchange work. Are you using one of these
two protocols with your email provider?
Also, if you're using POP3, you can configure it to delete all of the
messages on the server after you've downloaded them to your device or
just the messages you've deleted.
None of this has anything to do with a Mac or an iPod. This is how email
works for me on Linux, Windows, IOS and Android. I've never checked my
email on a Mac. It'll also work this way with any mail client that
supports IMAP, such as Thunderbird, Windows Live Mail, Outlook and so on.

I thought that, when I turned on my iPod touch, that the emails would not be deleted from that, but when I turned on the iPod, and started mail, the messages I thought that would be there, were also deleted from the iPod as well. So my question is, what happened? Does that mean that my mail inbox on the Mac Mini is synced up with the iPod?
