Duplicate emails in new POP3 account

D

Daniel Mazur

A long time problem I'd like to resolve is when setting up a new, or
resetting an user name and password for a POP3 mail account. In all
versions of outlook I have users who keep many months of email stored on the
mail server. I don't mind them keeping it there, but for some of these
people, when I setup a new logon name to the same mail account the Outlook
program is somehow reset and does not know that it already has months of
emails in its account. So, it goes ahead and downloads them all over again.
Well, I've used Duplicate Email remover that works nicely to remove this
data, but how about a setting or some other change that tells the program
to, say, only check for email from a certain more current date? I am
getting tired of waiting hours for downloads to propogate fully when a
simple setting change somewhere may prevent the wait and need to use Dupe
remover. Anyone have a solution?

Thanks,

Dan
