You don't state your Outlook version, so this is for OL 2002/2003.

Click Tools>E-mail Accounts>Next. Select your account. Click Change, then
More Settings. Select the Advanced tab. Check the box labeled "Leave a
copy of messages on the server".

This problem will not happen if you using HTTP type email account like
Hotmail or MSN, so you are using POP3 email account.
The configuration is easy, go to "Tools"->>"Email Accounts"-->> "View or
change existing e-mail accounts ", press the "Other settings" button,
navigate to the Advanced tab, in "Delivery" area you can choose whether
retain or not the backup in your pop3 server.
Please also be noted that some Pop3 servers also offer options for
downloading emails, like Gmail.
Hope you are totally clear about this.
