duplicate emails

It only happens in Outlook. In OE and on web mail, there is only one
copy.

Christopher,

Have you checked with your ISP. I had a similar problem but not as
consistent as your and it was my ISP's problem. Also, check your web
based mail account to see if there are 2 copies in that file. If you know
anyone else that is using that ISP, check if they are experiencing the
problem.

No, ALL mail into Outlook is duplicated including those that are directed
into specific folders - 2 of everything !!



Apparently not all email is duplicated. What a\kind of emails are being
duplicated?

Neil

Rules purely relate to placing emails in specifies folders.
AVG Anti-Virus disabled or not makes no difference.
This has only been happening for a short time and I have changed
nothing and created no further rules.
The only changes would be, I suppose, AVG and Microsoft updates.

Do you have a virus scanner that integrates with Outlook? Disable this
integration and try again.

Hi Robert and thanks for your response

I only have one account configured in Outlook
It is a POP3 account
I do have some rules configured but they don't cover these emails that
are
duplicating themselves.

Do you have any rules configured?

Sorry Neil, I didn't explain clearly. If I download into OE,
then I
get 1 copy of the email. If I download into Outlook, I get 2
copies of
the same email in Outlook.


This will always happen. The 2 programs are totally independent.
If you
have the same email accounts setup in both programs you will always
get a
copy of each email in each program.

Neil

when I download into Outlook Express, I get a single copy of each
email.

When I download into Outlook [office 2003] I get 2 identical copies
of
each email.

This has only been happening for a couple of weeks - is there
anything I
can do to stop it ?

I do not have any idea what might be causing the problem but if you have
tried everything that you can think of, I would try to create a new profile
and test it. Do you have the capability of adding a new email account with
your ISP? If yes, then also test if the new account gets duplicate emails.
