  Took your advice Ken ; seems i was wrong and you were right.  Big tip!  I am 
periodically cancelling the process and it is updating the record of what it 
has or doesn't have.

    It is not reasonable to expect Outlook to download and mark for deletion 
all 54K messages with no glitches then quit so the server can do cleanup.  I 
highly recommend stopping the sync process periodically so Outlook will finish 
the current message and quit the POP3 session.  Then hit Send/Rcv again and it 
should start up with the next message.  Otherwise if the session times out 
instead of ending normally, the server will take the safe approach and not 
delete any of the downloaded messages, and you will start over from the 
beginning.

think my cable connection dropped at least once.

      So weather is your point? Sounds like maybe you have never had the pain 
of running your own mail server. We used to get this note and again. Someone 
needs to manually look at the message file and go to the spot if that message 
and manually delete it. Good luck convincing bell south to do it.

maybe not.

        issue:  my outlook keeps downloading the same message over and over.
        the message was about three months old once i looked at it.

        i setup a new profile, clean pst file, started downloading messages.

        downloading message 1 of 54484 messages (1.79 gig)

        what?!

        messages started coming in from january 2014.

        this is an @bellsouth.net email address.
