Sending and receiving twice per provider

[Michel Gervais]

Hi,
When I launch sending/receiving on my two accounts I can see in dialog box :
[P1] Sending
[P1] Receiving
[P2] Sending
[P2] Receiving
and a few seconds later 4 other lines again added up :
[P1] Sending
[P1] Receiving
[P2] Sending
[P2] Receiving

Is it relevant to my configuration or the line ?
Thank you.

Are you getting duplicate messages or something?

How often do you have Outlook polling the accounts normally?

I don't receive duplicate messages but it seems number of messages
mentionned to download is twice the number I obtain in my e mail box.

Sometimes (second and next sync) accounts appear only once.

OK, but what polling interval are you using for the accounts?

I use Office Professionnal 2003. When I used to open Outlook, I ask for
"send and receive" (which was not done at opening) and then obtained theses
multiple threads.
After that, I let system retreive messages. I didn't change any default
value. Only when a problem occured with my provider could I see dialog box
again.

Now I tried again as I write these lines and Outlook get messages as soon as
I open it. I dont't see the dialog box while message are received. If I try
manually (second receiving) dialog box appears with correct number of
threads (4).

As I update with Microsoft update all my softwares, maybe something has been
corrected or modified.

Similarly when I used to open word documents on Word 97 on another PC a
message said "this document is still used by <myself> do you what to make a
copy" despite I just opened it on my stand alone PC. This doesn't happen
anymore. My two PC are always connected to Internet on same cable modem line
via a cable/wifi router (DLink 614+).

Thank you anyway for your help.
