If you have your preferences set to leave mail on the server 
for some reason - and you have multiple accounts - you can 
easily set up a situation that can look like multiple 
unpacking.  I've done this to myself a few times.  

I have multiple accounts that I use for purposes of putting 
different return addresses on the messages I send.  They all 
send (and fetch, if allowed) via the same account.  I can 
set up my schedules so that they will all send the mail, but 
only one of the accounts collects it.  That's all fine, so 
far...  

The mistake I've made sometimes is that I fail to change my 
"Connect Now..." set-up.  I don't use it often, so - some days 
later - I'll do an immediate send of a message.  Next thing I 
know, there are multiple copies of all the new messages.  This  
happens because each of my multiple "send" accounts also "gets" 
messages... and each "get" unpacks.  This can happen because I 
choose to leave my email on the server for a few days, and it's 
there for the subsequent "gets" by extra accounts.  

(This problem highlights one of eMailer's shortcomings...  
The "Connect Now" routine does not *allow* "sending" from an 
account without also "getting" from it.)
