By checking the mail via webmail using my Winduhs box I was able to figure out what is happening... the mail is being deleted from the Bellsouth servers BEFORE I ever purposely open the mail client to GetMessages.

It sounds like you have setup fetchmail to get the mail. Check your local mbox, ie: /var/spool/mail/ and see if your mail is there.
