Default OE can't remove message from server after days

The Leave a copy on the server and Delete after xx days only apply for a
POP3 mail server.

The Delete after xx days only applies if you have checked the leave a
copy on server.

If you have Not checked the leave a copy on server, then messages are
deleted from the server after downloading.

If a message is not downloaded (e.g. not in the server Inbox which POP3
can access or you have a message rule with an action of down not
download), then the messages will remain on the server.

I set OE 6.0 to remove message from server after 4 days, but I found
all of
messages on mail server, what's problem? I don't check 'leave a copy
of
message...' option, the message automatically delete after I received.
