Send/Receive repeats delivery

B

a) I cannot stop my computer from downloading the same email messages again
and again and again. It's a monster.
b) Although I am not sending anything, when I click send/receive, first
thing it tells me that it is sending message 1 of 1, then it fails to send,
and ultimately it downloads my mail.

I am also having the same problem with multiple downloads of some, not all,
email messages. I have verified that my accounts are independent of each
other and that messages are not being held on the server. I use Comcast
(which seems to be more problematic these days) and have repeated run/checked
for virus, spyware, adware. This is very annoying and I'm hoping someone here
can help me to figure out what the cause may be.

Brian,

Thanks for the info. Your link was helpful and I checked all the areas that
were mentioned but still had the same problem. However, I deleted all my
message rules, closed Outlook and rebooted the computer. The multiple
deliveries have stopped so there must have been a corrupted data file or
whatever that was messing with my rules. Thanks so much for the help!
