Duplicates after IMAP / POP switch

P

Paul Blanchard

Outlook 2003 trys to receive all the message in my inbox again.

I was using POP3 and leaving messages on the server. Then I decided to try
IMAP. I deleted my existing account and added an IMAP account. While this
worked, it did not perform as well as the POP account did, so I wanted to go
back to POP.

Since I deleted the original POP account, I had to add a new one back. It is
setup the same way, and works. The only problem is that it doesn't know that
I already have all the email in my inbox, so it is trying to get them all
again.

Is there a way to make it recognize that it only needs to get new mail? Like
setting a starting date or something?

Thanks,
Paul
