Not sure if this is related to the original post or not. Please always
start a new topic unless you're addressing the original post or responding
to a message within that topic.

I see you're using Comcast to post to this list. Is the problem account a
Comcast account? I have four different Comcast accounts and one of them
for a few days now has been downloading old messages from the server.

Unfortunately, when a POP server is reset then the message IDs that are
unique to the messages on the server can also be reset. To Entourage,
these messages appear to be new and therefore it downloads them again.

You cannot control this and it's not Entourage's fault. The best you can
do is reduce the number of days you keep messages on the server under
Tools --> Accounts... --> <your Comcast account> --> Options.

To clean up when this happens, I select View --> Unread Only, select all
the messages and delete. This, of course, only works if you have all your
current messages marked as read to begin with.

Hope this helps!
