Microsoft Outlook 2010: One Message Sent, Three messages Received

Today, I installed Outlook 2010.

I exported messages and my address book from Outlook Express to Outlook.

Then I disabled Outlook Express.

A complication has arisen.

When I used Outlook Express, on coming across a newspaper article online, I would sometimes copy and paste its web address into an email and send it to myself.

However, when I do this on Outlook, although I send one email I receive three emails (all the same).

How do I fix this?

Make sure you have it set to delete mail from the server when downloaded.

Hi ,

I wasn’t certain what you meant; however, I did the following:

1. File
2. Accounts settings
3. Email
4. There were three entries: 1) my email address, 2) mail.plus.net, 3) mail.plus.net (1)
5. I deleted 2 and 3
6. Now the only entry remaining is Name: my email address; Type: POP/SMTP (Send from this account by default). Also in another section of the box it says: ‘selected account delivers new message to the following location ‘my email address\Inbox in data file C:\Documents and Settings\...my email address.pst’

The problem appears to be resolved. Is this what you meant, or have I inadvertently caused myself problems in another area?

Thanks for your reply.

Nope - you fixed it. Not what I was thinking, but you found it.
