Duplicate messages from weeks ago

Ever since upgrading to Leopard last month, Mail has been retrieving messages from one of my accounts that date back to weeks previous, which have already been retrieved. Every day I receive 5-20 "new messages" which I have already read. I saw this issue come up in a recent thread, but no one seems to have a solution. Any ideas?
Thanks
Atticus

am not sure which threads you refer to, but the first thing i would suggest is for you to check the settings of your email account if it is pop, that is the settings with your email provider - are you set to download every email, or are you set to download from "today" forward, or only the emails not downloaded...
let me know

  • How to remove duplicate messages from Mail in Mavericks (POP)

    Hello
    I'm having some significant problems with Apple Mail, and despite having researched widely, I haven't been able to find a solution yet. Here is my tale of woe...
    My set up is that I use Mail with 5 separate accounts, downloading all messages using POP. I keep all my mail so that I have a permanent record of all conversations, going back more than 10 years - this is about 250,000 emails. I'm running the latest version of Mavericks on a 2010 MBP. I have no intention of moving to IMAP - I need to keep a local archive of all my mail.
    A few months ago I was having problems with Mail being very slow to load and search emails. I decided to rebuild the mailboxes, but afterwards discovered that thousands of messages in the inbox of one of my accounts (and some of the sub-folders) had disappeared. Once I realised I tried to go back to a recent Time Machine back up, but, for whatever reason, that part of the back up hadn't worked properly and I was unable to recover the previous status. Ileft it while I decided what to do, and had time to deal with it.
    The last 2 years worth of emails on that account were still archived on gmail, so last week I decided to try redownloading the whole lot (something like 72,000 messages), and then uplanned to use one of the scripts I was aware of to remove the duplicates to the trash, and then remove any duplicates in the trash forever. That ought to mean I at least had an archive of the last two years of missing messages, even if I had no record of which ones had been flagged or replied to, etc.
    The downloading took about 24 hours to complete, and I now have almost 70,000 messages in the inbox of that account. However, I hadn't figured on two things:
    1. Mail 'hides' duplicate messages, meaning that all of the messages I've downloaded are showing as unread, and I can't differentiate the ones I already had in my Inbox, and the new downloads. When I click on those apparently unread messages I can see if they have been replied to or forwarded, etc, but there's no obvious way for me to remove the ones I have already dealt with to the trash, without going through them all manually, which is clearly impossible.
    2. The scripts I'd found for removing duplicates don't work. Andreas Amann's Remove Duplicates script doesn't work under Mavericks, and he has abandoned the project. I've also tried the remove-duplicate-messages.scpt made by Jolly Roger (http://jollyroger.kicks-***.org/software/), and while it *sometimes* works on individual subfolders on my Mac (but as far as I can tell removes the duplicate in that folder, rather than the newly downloaded version), mostly it doesn't work at all - it creates a 'Remove Duplicate Messages' folder on my desktop, a log inside it and a folder for removed messages, but nothing appears in the duplicates folder.
    So, I'm left in a position where I have 70,000 apparently unread messages in my Inbox, a massively bloated Mail library (which has pretty much doubled in size), a slow and unresponsive Mail program. I figure I have a number of options. Either I could abandon the last week's efforts and revert to the version of

  • View older text messages from months ago feature?

    I have old threads that i want to view. I have never deleted messages in threads and would like to view the very beginning from months ago. Is there a faster way to view them? Other than scrolling and clicking load earlier messages.

    Yes.

  • HT6030 Help!  I upgraded to Maverick and my emails are now really messed up.  It flagged over 5,000 messages when I haven't flagged anything.  Now, the email message that people are sending me is actually an email message from years ago.  Any explanations

    Help!  I upgraded to Maverick and now my emails are really messed up.  It flagged over 5,000 emails that I have never flagged.  Now, it shows a message from someone this morning, but the content is an email that I received years ago.  My Iphone and Ipad are fine.  Any ideas?  I can't read mail off of my macbook because the email isn't what these people are sending!  Help!

    Thanks one again. I know you helped me the last to. I do have the Deja Vu font set in my folder. I downloaded and the last time. So I don't know if there is supposed to be more or not, but those were installed with Windows-XP after my reformat.
    This is really driving me nuts. as I've done several re-formats on my computer and several friends computers and even upgraded hardware so I am not necessarily a software or programming expert, I am somewhat advanced when it comes to computers in general and can usually diagnose the problem but these font's are the problem and they never were before.
    I did see in another forum that if you had a Dell Computer and did the Microsoft update for the onboard video card driver that it could be the culprit, but I have that disabled being I have a much better graphics card so the updates from Microsoft for the onboard video weren't installed.
    It' a Dell Dimension 3000 with an Intel(R) 82865G Graphics Controller so I don't believe it is the culprit being it is disabled. The actual video card that I am using is a PCI Nvidia GeForce 9400 GT with 1 GB Memory. And I didn't have any problem before.
    I appreciate the help. But still can't get things to work. Live Help Chat doesn't open for another two hours so maybe they can do "Remote Access" or something and can check setting and help me. But if you come up with other suggestions, they would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks again.

  • I have cleared my history and the history now automatically is cleared, but the ten items in the drop down menu continue to be there from weeks ago. How do I clear them?

    The ten items in the drop down History header continues to show ten sites that I several weeks ago. Any new sites that I have used recently or am currently using do not appear in this list. I have configured the history settings to clear automatically, but those ten old sites persist throughout all current use. How do I get rid of them?

    Entries in the location bar drop down list with a yellow (blue on Mac) star at the right end are bookmarks.<br />
    You can remove such a bookmarked item that shows in the list if you open that url in a tab and click the yellow star in the location bar.<br />
    This will open the "Edit This Bookmark" dialog and you can click the Remove button to remove the bookmark if you want to remove such a bookmarked entry.<br />

  • How can I read non-deleted text messages from months ago without having to continuously press "Load Earlier Messages"?

    I never deleted text messages from a specific person in case I ever wanted to go back and look at them. Now months have gone by and I don't feel like continuously pressing "Load Earlier Messages" for hours trying to get back and look at them. Is there anyway I can upload the whole conversation on to my computer and read the entire conversation from the beginning?

    Yes.

  • Duplicate Messages from a Contacts iCloud and iMessage

    From a contact of mine i get the same message from there iCloud address and there phone number but as two different conversations.
    Is there a way that i can stop this?
    Matt

    That means the other user is sending imessage from his/her apple id and number - could be the apple id is associated with an ipad and phone number with an iphone.
    This isn't an issue on your end.

  • When I load sites such as ESPN it loads the headlines and news from weeks ago. I've cleared my cache, history, cookies, and it did not fix the issue.

    When I visit sites such as ESPN where the news and headlines change daily or even hourly for some reason my browser loads the site from a few days ago. I try to refresh the page but that does not fix the problem. I have cleared all history, cache, etc... that did not work. I added a ? to the end of the URL and that loaded a different page but still not the current new head lines. It's almost like it is stuck with the info from a previous visit.

    Hi Elkhorn,
    Please try this:
    # Open the url about:permissions
    # search for the site in the filter
    # click "Forget this site"
    # Restart Firefox
    # Open the site and see if the headlines change :-)

  • How to disable duplicate message from imessage on Mac and Messages on iPhone?

    I Just purchased an iPhone 4s. Previous to that, i have been using messages on my macbook pro. When i finally got the two synced up together so that messages were being delivered to my phone when i was away from my computer, i noticed that i received notifications for messages on my phone even when i was on iMessage on my mac. Is there a way to change this so I don't get double the notifications, or do I have to disable iMessage on my phone every time I'm at my computer using messages?

    You are correct.  The only way to stop it, is to turn off iMessage.  Your frustration is actually the reason they made iMessage.  It was designed so you could be working on your Mac, and if you recieved a text message, you could reply with out having to locate your phone.  I understand it can be frustrating because in my expeirence, when I'm away from my desk, anyone with access to my computer can then sit there and enjoy my conversation with out me knowing about it... I have since started logging out of Messages on my Mac when I walk away.  then no one can see it, and when I log back in, the messages are synced back up again.  Good luck!!  Cheers!

  • HT5047 I have downloaded Mr. Fone, my question is there anyway I can retrieve deleted text messages from months ago?  I have the phone almost two years.

    I would just like to know if I can retrieve any of my old text messages?  I have downloaded that Mr. Fone, but not really too computer savvy and just looking for direction.

    I have no real faith in these alleged data recovery tools. If the text messages were deleted months ago and you were still using the device, the chances are slim, even if that program works.

  • Why do I keep getting duplicate messages from IMAP

    I have several different gmail accounts, but on one account I get some messages twice, others only once.
    I have contacted the primary sender, to make sure they only have one account for me.
    Do I have something set to pull things down more than once? Original & duplicate always come in together.

    My first inclination is to answer your question --- yes - something is going wrong! I'm sure more specific information will be needed to help you.
    Are you getting a specific message? An error code number? Can you describe exactly what you are doing when you get the message?

  • Is there a way to read text messages from the past in a thread that has been ongoing for months?

    Is there a way to view/recover messages from months ago in a thread that has been ongoing? The messages are not deleted. If i just keep "loading new messages" a) it will take all day, I've tried, and b) it freezes on me.

    Try the computer apps PhoneView (Mac) or TouchCopy (Mac & PC):

    Both will allow you to archive your text messages to your computer and read them easily.

  • Duplicate messages in mulitcast test

    we have Weblogic servers on 5 physical hosts that need to broadcast messages to each other via IP multicast (IP=224.0.0.115 port=61101). These broadcast messages are used by WebLogic servers to update their cluster membership and are hence very important.
    The test results indicate that each host receives packets sent out from all other 4 hosts once, but receives the packet that it sent out twice.
    For example, if host A and host B send out packets "a" and "b" respectively to the multicast IP/port, then host A receives packet "a" twice (duplicate) and packet "b" once (normal). Similarly host B receives packet "a" once (normal) and packet "b" twice (duplicate).
    We wish to know if this a normal behaviour

    Hi Deepak,
    I can say from my personal experience that whenever we use same multicast ip address and port for the purpose of multicast utility then we will get the duplicate messages.
    If that is not the case, then I can say the following are the reasons for duplicate packets and it is better if we can contact your network team to check the following :
    ***Duplicate multicast packets are symptoms of several things:***
    1. An ethernet-level device (e.g. bridge) that doesn't understand multicast so reforwards it. This is easy to track to the right subnet using mtrace's packet statistics, but hard to track to the final device because it doesn't change the ethernet source address.
    2. The design of the PIM protocol accepts multiple copies periodically; when there are multiple paths to a multi-access link the default state is that all routers on the link forward; PIM Assert messages elect a single router as the forwarder but periodically time out.
    3. Forwarding loops. This is often due to a misconfigured router.
    Please cross verify the same but I am agreeing partly with Jay as most of the times we consider that the multicast test is passed even if there is any duplicate messages. But reconsider the above reasons and trace it out along with your network team..
    Thanks,
    Sreedevi
