generating multiple emails

My Outlook is creating a strange problem. Over the past 2
weeks it has been receiving multiple copies of the same
mail in the inbox. I have several accounts set up in
Outlook, but this happens with only one set of accounts. I
tried contacting the server administrators and they blame
it on Outlook.

Is there any resolution to this problem?
 
Dear "nj"

I'm having the same issue with getting the same email over
and over, but with my email address in FROM:

Did you get any reply indicating what is causing this?

I also have several accounts setup (profiles) and it only
happens in one of them.

Mark,

No one has replied to my post yet. This issue is so
annoying, I hope someone replies soon.
 
Hello,

I'm also having similar problems as you guys....

I also have several accts and only happens to certain accts at a time.
Worse, more than one accts re-downloading all the emails...

Problem is, I do leave messages on the server and taking it off after 20
days in the setup.

Would like to know why this thing happens...

1. Does it has something to do with the connection end to end?
2. How does this email client reader process the retrieval of new emails?
How does it know where to start and look only for new ones?
3. Does the mail server has something to do with it? If yes, why does it
only occur in certain accts and not all of them?
4. Does the file size of the POP email acct has something to do with this?


Similarly, at least in a year I do reformat my PC and having all fresh
installed programs. The sad part is, once i tried to setup the backup
outlook acct (.pst) and try to connect online it will try to download
everything all over again. Is there any ways to tell the Outlook to just
get only the new mails that was not retrieve.

BTW: I'm using all POP3 email accts.

Any valuable info would be appreciated.

Regards,
JohnT
