unwanted repeat mail downloads - outlook 2003

[brall]

I use Yahoo Mail POP 3 email. I've got a problem where everytime I do
a send/receive, every piece of mail on the server is downloaded,
whether or not it's already dl'd it or not in the past. I've never had
this problem with Outlook XP, not sure what's going on. I choose to
"leave mail on the server", as I need to access from multiple points at
times.

I've seen a few posts in here about this problem, but never a solution.
Can someone please assist?

Interesting thing is that on my laptop, running XP and Outlook 2003,
this does not occur. But on the desktop I have the problem above (runs
Win 2000).

Side note: I also was using my laptop as my email computer. I am now
wanting to use my desktop, and synch it with my laptop. To do this, I
have SynchPST. I synched my pst folders from the laptop to the desktop
(overwrote desktop pst), and am now trying to gather new email for my
desktop in-box, which is when this problem popped up.
Thanks in advance...
