    Do you have more than one Account set up?
    Inadvertantly double checking, (the 1st one leaving emails on the server),
    unlikely though!
    Or, possibly; Tools, Accounts, Mail, Edit, Options, Leave on Server?
    So they are picked up twice.

    Or a Schedule, which is rather too frequent, so not letting a busy mail
    server realise you've already got them?
    If a server is running slow due to spam or virus problems, or even having to
    be restarted, after frequent crashes, this may give your result.

    I had a similar problem briefly, when I (unwisely) left MSOE open, while
    browsing with MSIE, which crashed. THEN I had duplicates...

    ditto!

    Seen the posts about battery life? <comp.sys.mac.portables>

    Hi all,

    As a useful note to any people that have not posted here before, I suggest
    that you employ a spamtrap method to avoid your e-mail address being
    harvested and put on spam mailing lists. A lot of people have contacted me
    about this recently, and I can only reiterate that prevention is better than
    cure.

    So, for those new users out there that intend to post here (or anywhere else
    for that matter), take a look at the following document I've written to help
    Outlook Express users prevent their e-mail addresses from being collected by
    spammers...
