Disappearing E-Mail?

Just got contacted by a friend who still on the auctions. He is negotiating a deal for one of his guns.
The problem is as soon as he opens the e-mail from the other party, it disappears like it never existed. My computer knowledge is extremely limited. So I told him, I will ask you guys. Can anyone explain this in a non technical manner? And how to recover the e-mail's for later reference?

same thing here,I asked a seller a question,it was there then when I checked the mail later it was gone but comes back then goes away.
I mean, I had a similar dilemma, and when I checked my "email on the web", the emails I had seen while logged in to my ISP's mailbox were gone.
I discovered that if I want to see and retain all my emails, that I have to be logged in to my ISP account to read, save, archive, etc., and that when I accessed the emails from any other device; only what showed up were newer emails that I hadn't opened on any other device.
Here's hoping your fix is that simple...
Are you using the same piece of equipment to check the emails?

From what he told me only certain e-mails are disappearing? All from the same individual, only. Thats what is so strange? Almost it seems that the originator of the e-mails set a switch or something. To delete the e-mails, after they are opened the first time. Like he only wants certain e-mails to be kept as history on the hard drive. Other ones are to be opened once, then disappear.
He didn't say. But I got the feeling the guy who is sending the e-mails. Is one of the paranoid nervous types. Who doesn't want to leave any sort of trail of incriminating evidence.
