Hey Tony, I fought with this same issue for a few weeks (even called MS support but it didn't help) I figured it out when I accidently did it myself. It happens when you CTRL-Click the messages to highlight them (usually to mark them as read). Because you are clicking in rapid succession it is very easy to drag the mouse instead of a clean click. Because you are holding the mouse button down while you do this, it duplicates every item that you had hightlighted.
You can easily find the duplicates by adding the "Changed By" field to the view and you'll see it will be different in most cases from the sender. The other thing that we did to easily identify who made the duplicates is to change the setting on the folder so that dragged and dropped items are forwarded instead of copied. (can't remember the exact wording -- offline now...) Hope this helps.

Posts to one of our public folders will show up twice. This does not happen consistently. There may be one or half a dozen "duplicates" on one day then no duplicates for several days. This doesn't look like any sort of user error. I haven't found any kb articles that have been of any help. I'd appreciate any suggestions that you folks might have. I've got Exchange 5.5 SP4 and run Outlook 98 as the client.
