Are you sure they are *only* received the eMails twice? NOT more then that? Since, I'm coming into the middle of this eMail exchange in the -- I don't have all of the facts of your situation.... I had a problem like yours and was caused by the long time standing issues with mail clients on Windows due to the POP3 Tail issue - the symptoms that you state are nearly identical. David created a filter to not allow these messages in the queue. If you don't already have the filter installed I would highly recommend installing it. (Someone on this list may be able to tell the location to download the filter -- I don't see it listed on xmailserver.org -- it was mailed around at the time). POP3 Tail issue is caused by spam and other hacker attempts at DOS targeted at the eMail clients by intentionally corrupting the normal double CR LF at the bottom of the eMail message byte stream. An eMail that is corrupted in this way causes the email client to never complete downloading the eMailbox the mailbox is never cleared and then you get your Emails over and over again. This is a safety mechanism in the client to prevent accidental erasure of eMail messages in the case of a dropped IP connection. I'm not sure this will help you... Let us know...
