Hi b,

I have experienced problems with end users receiving the same mail messages 
over and over.  Everytime I've seen this, the problem has been something 
wrong specifically with Outlook keeping a copy of the messages on the pop 
server.  The way that I fix it is by disabling "keep a copy of messages on 
the server" in Outlook and checking the email.  At which point I can 
re-enable the feature without it occurring for quite some time to come.

I'm not sure that this even applies to you, but I figured it might be worth a 
shot. ;-)
