My recipients recieving multiple copies

C

I'm using Outlook 2002 with Win XP Pro. I have dial up (POP3 & SMTP) in a
little town with old phone lines. My recipients (never more than 50)
sometimes recieve from 2 to 10 copies of the same message. I have increased
the server time-out time from 1 minute to 9 minutes ( I figured that out on
my own) but I'm not yet sure if that's the solution because my ISP guy tells
me that Outlook really wasn't designed to send one message to more than 3
recipients esp. Bcc (I find that remark very hard to believe). My ISP guy
tells me I should get an email program designed to send to multiple
recipients (but the one that imports Outlook contacts is $190.00), and he
says it's definitely not his server sending multiple copies but it's Outlook.
Also, I have recently upgraded to Norton 2005 Internet Security. So, is
there some configuration in Outlook that I'm missing which is causing the
extra copies? Do I need to query Norton? Do you believe my ISP guy?
