MS Office Forum / Outlook / New Users / March 2006Outlook 2003 Receive e-mails many times...
Dear, My Outlook 2003 is receiveing the same e-mails messages many times (every time the outlook 2003 send/receive) , it receives the messages again. I think there's a patch from microsoft to solve this problem, but I do not know where to get it Help me pease The "patch" is to disable your AV from scanning incoming/outgoing mail.

SignatureBrian Tillman Here is another possible cause of this problem, which I find among many of the people I support. If your Outlook (or Outlook Express) mail setttings for POP3 are set to keep messages on the mail server and the mailbox on the mail server exceeds 25MB, Outlook and Outlook Express may time out on retrieving messages and start over to retrieve the messages again. This also depends on your Internet connection speed and computer's performance; if all messages are able to retrieve in Outlook or Outlook Express before the timeout occur, this problem is not visible. The solution is to change your mail settings in Outlook or Outlook Express not to keep messages on the mail server. This also leads in to another problem, how to remove duplicate e-mails in Outlook or Outlook Express. >> Dear, My Outlook 2003 is receiveing the same e-mails messages many >> times (every time the outlook 2003 send/receive) , it receives the [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > Or, if Milly's idea doesn't help, to try a new mail profile or make sure > Office SP2 is installed. The truth is there is a bug in the way Outlook pulls the email from the server using POP3. The rest, about changing how often it checks mail, turning off AV, installing the hotfix etc. is just urban legend. There is a bug and the bug has not been fixed.

Gee, then how come turning off the email scanning stops the multiple emails? If there was a bug in Outlook, it would still happen. Still scratching MY head.

Today, we installed MS updates, and right away, started recieving duplicate emails - on the lap top only! And, only when it is sleeping, and then re-starts. The desktop doesn't do it. The AV does not matter, the timing doesn't matter, it is a microsoft issue with outlook. The third laptop (running XP home) downloads duplicates constantly if it sleeps and re-starts, but the other one just started today after some "updates" coincidence, I think not. > Gee, then how come turning off the email scanning stops the multiple emails? > If there was a bug in Outlook, it would still happen.
