I recently went out of town with my laptop. While away, all of my emails
that are left on the server would download two to four times within a
couple
of days. All of a sudden it would not download any new emails all
together.
When I got back home, all emails downloaded again, and the new emails,
that
were not coming through, came through only once, along with duplicates of
previous emails. Everything has been ok since I got home. This has
happened several times before, and every time it has happened, I have been
out of town. I have read forums online, and no one has a clear solution
on
how to prevent this from happening again.

It seems that it happens when there is a break in the connection, which
causes a break in the synchronization mechanism between the server and
Entourage. What can I do to prevent this from happening?

Thanks,

Didn't you already post this question a couple days ago?

Yes, but no one responded. Thanks for helping.

My question was a pointed one.

So now there are two different threads where people may eventually
respond to you. Will you be able to keep track of messages in both
places? If someone does answer with a solution in one of them, will
others facing the same problem you are having be able to find the
solution, or will they see the other one and give up? And if nobody
answers you here in a couple days, do you plan to create yet another?

Please don't do this. It's counter productive for everyone involved.
