Question asked on Aug 15, 2014

I am having a problem on one account in my Windows Live Mail on my Windows 7 (latest and greatest) 64bit Asus Laptop.

The Windows Live Mail program will download emails I have already downloaded. I show duplicates. This is not the first time this has happened so for some emails I have 4 or 5 duplicates.

This is NOT a sync, it's a download. This is from a non-hotmail, gmail, what have you. It's from my ISP's mail server. On other machines using the same account (again, NON sync whatsoever) it works fine.

If you need more info, let me know. I will be happy to provide it.

Ideas?
