duplicate emails

[EJ Waits]

In Outlook, with some senders I received duplicate emails. This doesn't
happen with all senders, but happens every time with some senders. Anyone
have any idea why this happens, and how to fix it? Thanks.

Probably because of some rule that you have configured.

The problem is that this is now happening on my wife's computer. She just
updated to Outlook 2007 and began using that instead of Outlook Express.
Unfortunately, she's now getting duplicates of many emails. It may be the
virus scanner/firewall issue mentioned in one of the links, and I will look
into that and see if that cures the problem. On my own computer, the only one
that seems to get duplicated is email from my wife and not from other people.
She doesn't use rules, although I do. The duplicates on my machine have been
happening for quite a while, since I moved from OE to O2003 some time ago,
but only with email from her.

Thanks for the suggestions.
