    Duplicated messages

    Hi All - Couldn't access my Windows Mail account for the last couple of days - kept getting a sign in box which wouldn't accept my username and/or my password.

    'Phoned BT Helpline & eventually spoke to some very nice people in Calcutta who set up a new account & password.

    But this seems to have duplicated all the messages in my Inbox!

    Is there an easy (& free) way to remove all of the duplicate messages, please?

    Hi,
    Please check if there is a duplication of the account.

    To check, please follow the instruction: Tools ->Accounts-> make sure you do not have the account entered twice.

    Is your anti-virus (AV) program also running e-mail scanning option?

    If yes, please disable that option.

    For any further questions in future please feel free to contact us.

    Re: Duplicated messages

    Hi Madhur - Thanks for the message.

    I have checked in Tools>Accounts and there are 3 entries:

    My mail default account
    Active Directory (NULL)
    Verisign Internet Directory Service

    What I'd like to do is remove all the duplicated files - all message headers in Inbox have now somehow doubled up! Deleting manually will take ages.

    Many thanks.

    Providing the link for your reference for the software: Duplicate Remover for Microsoft Outlook Express and Windows Mail | Topalt.com
