Mac Forum / Applications / Entourage / December 2008Duplicate emails
I recently went out of town with my laptop. While away, all of my emails that are left on the server would download two to four times within a couple of days. All of a sudden it would not download any new emails all together. When I got back home, all emails downloaded again, and the new emails, that were not coming through, came through only once, along with duplicates of previous emails. Everything has been ok since I got home. This has happened several times before, and every time it has happened, I have been out of town. I have read forums online, and no one has a clear solution on how to prevent this from happening again. It seems that it happens when there is a break in the connection, which causes a break in the synchronization mechanism between the server and Entourage. What can I do to prevent this from happening? Thanks, Lisa > I recently went out of town with my laptop.

JR Yes, but no one responded. Thanks for helping.

Thanks for helping. I started to respond but you had written in such a small font I decided not to bother. Obviously you don't care if it's viewable so why should I bother to respond.

Is that not how Entourage works? SignatureSend responses to the relevant news group rather than email to me. E-mail sent to this address may be devoured by my very hungry SPAM filter.

JR > Interesting. With MT-NewsWatcher, all posts show up in the same font > face, size, and style. Is that not how Entourage works? No, the forum messages are all plain text so they show in the font and size I have selected, but messages sent with a newsreader show up the way they were sent. The OP used a very small font size. Extremely inconsiderate IMHO. When there are so many messages to be answered, I don't bother with ones that the OP uses no consideration for the people that answer them.

Is that not how Entourage works? Gee, JR, you of all people should have guessed that the original message was in HTML, not plain text! :-) That's why it looked too small in Entourage. Your reply in plain text fortunately converted the remainder of the thread to plain text (at least for posters set up to reply in the same format as the message replied to).

Ho would I know? My news reader doesn't display HTML. : ) > Your reply in plain text fortunately converted the remainder of the thread > to plain text (at least for posters set up to reply in the same format as > the message replied to).

My question was a pointed one. So now there are two different threads where people may eventually respond to you. Will you be able to keep track of messages in both places? If someone does answer with a solution in one of them, will others facing the same problem you are having be able to find the solution, or will they see the other one and give up? And if nobody answers you here in a couple days, do you plan to create yet another? Please don't do this. It's counter productive for everyone involved.
