Help: Outlook 2007 Dowloading Duplicate Emails for Same Email Acc

[gpackfan]

Hi All,
I am running Outlook 2007 on a Windows Vista machine. I have recently set up
a second email account in Outlook. I have no problems sending or receiving
from either account, however when I recieve email for the new email account
(not the defalut account by the way) I recieve the same message twice.

I've looked at the headers for the two different emails, and it appears that
one is being sent to my default address. I obvioulsy don't have any forwards
set up, or anything like that.

I was told it was a known issue with Outlook 2007, but nobody seem to have a
work around for it.

Any suggestions are appreciated.

Thanks!

I suspect that your two addresses are, in fact, aliases of each other. Are
the server usernames and passwords the same or different for each account?

Hi Brian,

No, they are not aliases. The usernames are different, although passwords
are the same (not sure that should matter).

The servers for both mail accounts are completly different as well.

Any ideas?
