Dear All,
I've just bought a domain name, and rent web hosting.
I use pop3 email feature from the web hosting and retrieve it using outlook
2000. Our network is connected to the internet by a Cisco router. We use ICS.

The problem is :
Why some of the messages always arrive in double / triple ? The time is
exactly the same.

I've no idea, please help.
Thanks a lot in advance.

Open Outlook and then go to options,check to see if box to check for mail every so many minutes is checked
The other part is that in the same area the client should have the option check to receive new mail only.

Everytime I open my outlook (start the program), the messages are starting to arrive in duplicates!

There are some other scenarios that could be the cause
1)Check the Rules wizard configuration you may have rules that are in conflict,customer email may be set up in group rather than a email address
2)Look for Corrupt mailboxes
3)Check for duplicate account in the exchange server setup,go to Tools/Service and highlight Exchange Server Service and click properties.Go to Advanced Tab click on button for off line settings,Disable offline folder use.
4)If you Imported any old pst files to the exchange server,delete the old pst files that were imported to Exchange mailbox.

I've even contacted the OL2K MVP that runs Slipstick, but, no respon :)
