How do I prevent 100s of duplicate emails on Gmail?

Whenever we send or receive emails thru Gmail, we get dozens or hundreds of duplicate messages.
What setting do we need to change to prevent this?

In Mail preferences, under "Mailbox behaviors", do NOT choose to save Draft emails to the server.

  • How can i find and delete duplicate emails on my mac

    I use Apple Mail, Gmail and a third party email on my few Apple devices (iMac and Macbook Air both running Mavericks and iPhone 4s running current version iOS). 
    I would like to sort through, locate and delete duplicate emails (from several misguided approaches to Rules, Mailboxes, Smart Mailboxes, etc.)

    Hi,
    Presuming the Post is about the Messages app and iMessages.
    If you delete them they are gone or the Mac.
    An iMessages arrives  and is displayed in the App.
    there is a setting in the Preferences > General section about Saving on Close.
    The iMessages are also stored in the chat.db items (unless deleted) and this provides the "history" when you reconnect to a contact who is not currently on display in the main window.
    In Mavericks Saved Chats and the chat.db items (there are three in total) are held in different places.
    The app does not work like Mail where the emails can be left on the Server and "read" by other devices.
    The iMessages are pushed to the devices that then accepts them.
    After that the "sync" function ends (What you do with the iMessages on one device is not seen or changed on another)

  • How do I prevent Thunderbird from showing emails from one account as a duplicate a different account (identity?)?

    I really do not know the difference between the term "identity" and the term "account". My Thunderbird has three different email addresses that it collects messages into. I can receive or send from all three separately.
    The problem is that all emails from my business (comcast.net) account show up as a duplicate in my personal account (a gmail account). Oddly, those same messages do not show up in the third account (comcast.net).
    What am I doing wrong?
    Thanks for any help!

    It may help to post your settings.

  • How do I prevent calendar from sending email notifications for calendar events?

    Right now I have my google calendar synced with iCloud.  This is great for me to add things either on my Mac, through the web on iCloud or Google Calendar, or my iphone.  The problem is that I am getting notifications through email that I do not want.  These are not google notifcations but those sent out through my MacBook Pro calendar/mail applications.  How can I stop this from happening?  I want to keep the phone notifications because that's what I need.  The emails just take more of my time up since I need to delete them. 

    Figured it out - in System Prefernces, under "Users & Groups", you can remove individual "Login Items"

  • How do I prevent purchase of duplicate songs?

    I'm new to iTunes and have purchased mostly singles. There was one time where iTunes
    gave me a pop-up saying i already had the selected song in my Library
    and asked if I wanted to purchase again. So I know there is SOMETHING
    thatiTunes has that scans my previous purchases.
    Yesterday I purchased two iTune Essentials albums. There were two songs that were duplicated, but iTunes didn't catch those.
    My questions are:
    Do I end up paying for those duplicated items (purchases)?
    Is there a setting I can select that allows iTunes to find and prevent duplicate purchases?
    Thank you for any assistance.
    nvs4u

    The iTunes store should warn you automatically if you are purchasing duplicated songs, however, I don't think it picks up on it you purchase 2 different albums that happen to contain the same song. Reason being, on that song's track information, I'm willing to bet the album name is different, which may lead iTunes to not realize that the songs are in fact one in the same.
    If you purchase by the album, you'll pay full price for each album, even if both albums have 1 or 2 of the same songs. One way to get around this is purchase the albums by song, and just leave out the songs you already have. The only problem with this, is that the song won't appear with both albums in iTunes or on an iPod. (You could get around this with playlists if willing to do so).
    Hope this is helpful

  • How can I prevent duplication of incoming emails?

    I need to find out what is causing about 40% of emails received from being duplicated and then fix it once and for all. I don't leave messages on the server. I read the article on this topic but it seems hit and miss try this try that; I want something a bit more professional please.

    As You have no idea of the cause then no one can offed more than try this try that. that is what diagnosing the problem is all about.
    I have problems with outlook.com. As far as I can work out it is because it is a crappy service? Who are you have problems with?
    Have you tried without your anti virus scanning incoming mail. It is the number one cause, but again it is try this try that.

  • How do you prevent file upload duplicates?

    Portal 3.0.9
    SunOS 5.8
    All,
    Has anyone implemented a file upload portal that checks
    to make sure the same file has not already been uploaded.
    I currently have set up a portlet that allows a user to
    upload files to a database table, but now I would like to
    make sure the user is not sending duplicate files to the
    table. I'm thinking of using JavaScript to capture the
    filename and store it in the table and checking for
    duplicates. Maybe, even setting up the file name column
    as an index. All thoughts are welcome...

  • How do I add new contacts from email in Gmail app

    I recently just switched over from the native iPhone Mail app to the Gmail app and I'm enjoying the Gmail app a lot.
    However, I have one issue that I can seem to figure out.
    With the Apple Mail app, inside any email you can hold down on the sender and it will allow you to save that email address as a new contact.
    Is there a way to do this within the Gmail app? When you hold down on the senders info it only allows you to copy the info. It doesn't send it to the Contacts app to make a new contact.
    Am I missing something or does the Gmail app just not sync up with Contacts that way?
    I'm running an iPhone 4S ios 6.1.3
    Thanks!!

    The mail app that came with the phone allows you to add email senders as contacts because that feature is built into the iphone operating software.  I have looke dat gmail app on my phone and htere is no way of doing what you said you would like to do

  • Prevent Sharepoint 2010 workflow to send duplicate emails

    I have SharePoint 2013 as environment but am using SharePoint 2010 workflow on a list. There is a field in this list called "Order Status" which has different status such as Processing, Shipped, Cancelled, Hold. There is another list which updates
    this Order Status. I have the workflow send out an email when the Order Status changes to Processing and another email when Order Status changes to Shipped.
    The issue is that there are multiple emails being sent out when any of these status changes to either Processing or Shipped. There is no other workflow attached to this list 
    How do I prevent the workflow to send duplicate emails? I have seen that a flag could be setup to track the email sent once but that method does not work correctly and it still sends out duplicate emails. Or maybe I am not doing this correctly
    Any suggestions, comments or have anyone resolved this successfully
    Thanks Snehal H.Rana SharePoint Consultant

    Hi Snehal
    If you check the workflow history, you will probably see that every time an item is added or modified, the workflow runs twice. That’s why you’re receiving two email notifications. 
    The reason for this is timing. If your workflow is very short and the SharePoint server is very slow, the first instance of the workflow may finish well before the item is fully saved and committed to SharePoint. As the item is being processed, the workflow
    event receiver can fire again, and start another instance of the workflow.
    The solution for this problem is to add a step at the end of your workflow which will pause the workflow for a few minutes .
    Another Option is to use a Flag.For Setting up flag correctly check the following link

  • I highlight emails I need to follow up on. Recently these highlights have all just dissappeared. This has happened a few times. How do I prevent this?

    after reading an email, or not I keep highlighted or mark as unread so I know I need to follow up on. 3 times in the last year, twice on my computer, and once on my phone. These highlighted emails lose their highlight status. They are still in the system as a read email,, but now I have to spend hours trying to find them as they are mixed up with the 100's of emails I get.
    Do you know why this happens?
    Is there a way to prevent it from happening?

    Read status is synchronized in IMAP mail accounts between all devices. What triggers a change of read status is really hard to guess. It might be turning on a laptop that has been in the cupboard for 6 months. Might I suggest you try tagging your mail instead. Try pressing the 1 on the keyboard to mark it a important and change it's color to red. The other 8 numeric keys also have an attached label and a different colour
    Note tags are not universally supported by mail servers. Change one and wait a while to see if the server sets it back to black on the next synchronization (about 15-20 minutes usually)
