Double headers with Hotmail and Express

When I connect to hotmail through Outlook Express I seem
to download double headers to the inbox. If after d/l is
complete I refresh (F5) it drops to single headers.
Any way I can get single headers in the first place?

This newsgroup is for support of Outlook
97/98/2000/2002/2003 from the Office suite of products. Outlook
Express is actually a separate program despite the similar name.

For help with your OE questions, try an OE newsgroup such as
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6_outlookexpress (for OE 6), or
an OE help website such as http://insideOE.tomsterdam.com. If you're
accessing the Microsoft newsgroups through the MS Product Support
Services "Community Newsgroups" web interface, click
http://communities.microsoft.com/newsgroups/default.asp?icp=InternetExplorer
to get to the Internet Explorer groups, then click the plus sign next to
your version of IE to see the link to the Outlook Express group for that
version number. Good luck!
 
Thanks alot for the links =)

Why does OE show duplicate messages in my Hotmail or IMAP
account?
That can happen if your Hotmail or IMAP account is the
default mail account and OE is configured to both open
directly to the Inbox (which downloads headers
automatically) and check for new messages when starting
(which also downloads headers automatically). To stop the
duplicates, simply choose one option or the other, but
not both. Click Tools | Options, then remove the check
mark for "When starting, go directly to my 'Inbox'
folder" OR the check mark for "Send and receive messages
at startup". If you already have duplicates showing,
click Tools | Synchronize Account or Synchronize All.
