Re: [Blind-Computing] Duplicate Messages
At times you might have to do a reboot after doing what has to get done. Some times the computer doesn't do what you might want it to do until you do a reboot. If you have any more questions just ask them, either myself or someone else will send you an answer soon.

Re: [Blind-Computing] Duplicate Messages
There may be copies kept on the server. Win 98 is technically on my home network. My tech had set it up that way so duplicates of everything wouldn't pour in in the event the XP Home was down and I needed e-mail enough to risk it on the Win 98. I haven't used the '98 for ages and maybe now not leaving copies on the server might be the way to go. Is the setting under tools, account and properties? Sorry, I barely know my own name right now. I did change the OE settings not to check for mail at startup and not to check for mail every to try to lessen the amount of mail coming in in hopes someone had suggestions. I didn't get any e-mail from Cox about changing security settings, but I do know one time the Cox tech had to come because they hadn't alerted customers to a setting change that needed to be made or at least I never got the message. The weird thing is that the error message I keep getting was exactly like one I got several days ago when Cox's e-mail was totally down for several hours in both my state and a neighboring one, but this time Cox was reporting no conductivity problems in my area.

Re: [Blind-Computing] Duplicate Messages
Hi Margaret, If, as you say, the power went out midway through downloading your messages, then the computer didn't have time to transmit the fact that it had been downloaded, and so the server assumed you had not gotten the messages. Once your computer downloads your e-mail, it sends the information to the mail server, letting it know that the messages did come down, and that it shouldn't re-send them again. This happens quite often during power outages. Whether this was a result of your e-mail problems, I don't think so, it sounds more like the power outage knocked your computer for a loop, and it literally couldn't remember what it did before the outage. To change the leave a copy on the server option, go into the accounts in the tools menu, highlight the account and go to properties. Control+tab over to the advanced tab, and it will be below the time out settings on that tab. Make sure the checkmark is unchecked, then go to apply then ok, and it won't leave a copy of the messages on the server anymore. I should note that this will not delete any messages that are there already, just the new ones you receive from that change on. If you want to delete those messages you'll have to go back into the account through webmail and delete them manually.
