IMAP deleting mails automaticlly

Hi ,

I am using MacOS Sierra 10.12.2 and iphone 6 10.2 .
I have an IMAP mail account. In the inbox, emails are deleting itself from a date. Like 7 days older emails deleting itself.
I looked up webmail preferences but there was no option.
Is there any option or rule that i can change it.

Thank you

MacBook Air, macOS Sierra (10.12.2)

Open IMAP account > preferences > accounts > erase deleted messages > click on drop down arrows .

The options are available .

However the article says : Mail for Mac: Mailbox Behaviors preferences in Mail

If you selected None for Trash Mailbox, you can choose to have Mail permanently delete messages automatically.

If your email account provider sets up the server to delete older messages, the messages are deleted regardless of how you set this option.
