I'm deleting my home computer emails

When I delete the email from my X, it is removing them from my home computer. What do I do to change that setting?
 
If you're using IMAP then anything deleted on your phone will be deleted from your other email clients. Based on what you say in your message, I would guess your phone is set to IMAP while your Apple is set to POP. Though useful, POP is not as efficient as IMAP>

Check you Webmail POP and IMAP settings by: Web Gmail > Forwarding and POP/IMAP

Here's gmail FAQ links for both:

Thank you very much for the needed info & help.

Weird thing is, I think when I installed Launcher Pro my email settings got messed up or something. I was trying to figure out why I couldn't pull up my gmail account settings to change it from pop to imap.

After opening my accounts page I noticed that only the google accounts stuff was there and not any email accounts. So I had to add my an email account and change the settings from there. Hopefully everything works after setting up from the info you provided! Thanks
