| | Re: Keep getting each message twice This works for Outlook Express, perhaps for WLM as well? For Hotmail, or IMAP accounts: Tools | Options | General tab. Uncheck: Send and receive messages at startup. -- Bruce Hagen MS-MVP [Mail] Imperial Beach, CA "Jonathan Kay [MVP]" <msnewsreplies@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:e13$EoA4JHA.1420@xxxxxx Quote: > [Forwarded to Windows Live Mail newsgroup via crosspost.] > > Greetings Wrenni, > > Do you happen to know what kind of mailbox this is (POP, IMAP, or > Hotmail/HTTP)?

| | Re: Keep getting each message twice See Bruce's suggestion on WLM' Settings(Tools/Options/General tab) - 'Send and receive at startup' (uncheck); and - 'Check every x minutes(uncheck) Please provide the info, Jonathan requested - pop3, imap, Hotmail(Http) If pop3 what is the account domain(Gmail.com, Yahoo.com, your isp etc, Live.com) If Hotmail what server is in use(DeltaSync or Live.com) If Pop3, is WLM configured to leave messages on the server ? (fyi..the default is 'yes') Are these incoming messages or are they duplicates due to WLM still indexing your prior email client message store ? -- ...winston ms-mvp mail "Jonathan Kay [MVP]" <msnewsreplies@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:e13$EoA4JHA.1420@xxxxxx Quote: > [Forwarded to Windows Live Mail newsgroup via crosspost.] > > Greetings Wrenni, > > Do you happen to know what kind of mailbox this is (POP, IMAP, or Hotmail/HTTP)?
