Inbox copying itself!


Recommended Posts

I woke up and and ran Entourage this morning. I run my schedule and all of a sudden I see the number of new emails in my inbox rapidly growing. It went all the way up to around 180 new emails! I had no clue what was going on. I started going through some of the new emails and I saw they were duplicates of emails I had received. Some were even emails I had sent to the trash. I was just wondering if this has happened to anyone else. Thanks in advance

Oh, and before anyone asks, no, I have not opened any unknown files.

No, my emails from even like 3 months ago are duplicating. Ones that I have already opened and read, they just all of a sudden copied themselves. Now it didn't do this to all of them, but a good majority did. I have like 300 or so emails from all my accounts, and about 180 of them duplicated. This sounds really bazzar I know.

OK, and I the only one this is happening to. It did the same thing on Friday and today again. I don't know what's going on!!! Right now it's just really annoying because I have to go in and delete all the duplicates.

I use Mac Mail and this has happened to me 4 times in the past 8 days.

i don't know why this is happening.

I've had duplicate emails come into Mail.app before. What sort of email server are you connecting to?

This has happened to me for the first time in over 3 years... last week. Pretty annoying and silly.

It's happened to me a few times. Assuming you're using POP3 in Entourage, keep any emails and folders you have but delete your hotmail account and add it again. That always works for me.
