TS3276 Getting duplicate emails including ones that I just trashed.

After rebuilding my mac mail I start getting duplicate emails including ones that I just trashed. How do I resolve this.?

10.5.8 & even 10.4.1 can talk to iCloud Mail, (no other syncing is available though), but iCloud is IMAP only, as far I know.
To be safe,
On Mail...
First Quit Mail, then I'd backup these two Mail folders, by right clicking on them in the Finder, then choose Archive/Compress.
Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail
Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail Downloads
(Could be a different folder here if you chose such in Mail Prefs)
Right click on that Mail folder, choose archive, you'll get everything in the folder, and the folder itself in a file called Mail.zip, move it to a safe place, same for the Mail Downloads folder... only the plist is separate.
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist
Once we have those backed up we can try deleting again, at least the POP account, trashing IMAP may either delete it on the Server too, or redo it on the computer.

  • How can I stop getting duplicate emails?

    I've been getting duplicate emails for as long as I can remember. I've tried the suggestions I've found on these forums, including getting rid of MessageUidsAlreadyDownloaded2 from the three mail accounts I use. I have two domains of my own, and my .mac email account, and the duplicates occur with all three accounts - and it's driving me crazy!
    I don't get duplicates of all my emails, and it seems quite random, but it does happen a lot.
    This happens on my G4 laptop at home, and also on my G5 iMac at work.
    I am anxious for a solution that actually works, because nothing I've seen suggested or tried has helped.
    Thanks,

    David, the problem appears to be that random messages are downloaded more than once from a server (it could be any of my three servers, two of which are my own domains, and the third of which is my .mac account, which is set up as a .mac account rather than a POP account).
    I did notice this, and wouldn't be surprised if it's the cause of the problems: on my home machine, in the ~/library/mail folder, there are three POP account folders.
    Two of them match my current email addresses ([email protected] and [email protected]), while the third is labelled "[email protected]@mail.hrksf.com,"
    even though I currently use [email protected] rather than [email protected] With me so far?
    On my work machine, in the ~/library/mail folder, there are two POP account folders. One is actually for a domain that no longer exists, the other is the same as #3 above - [email protected]@mail.hrksf.com. Somehow, mail.app is using these two folders to download my mail. I have tried deleting the folders but mail.app recreates them. I'm not at work to check at the moment, but I don't think either of those folders contains a MessageUidsAlreadyDownloaded2 file.
    I don't know if it matters that these folders don't match my accounts, but I imagine that it does. Any ideas?

  • Some external Users are getting Duplicate Emails from our domain

    Some external Users are getting Duplicate Emails from our domain. I have Exchange 2013 and is properly configured. A user reported me that, I sent one email to the other domain's user, and it was delivered twice after 1 or 2 hours.  I checked the Message
    track log on exchange servers and email was resubmitted and sent from the edge server after 2 hours.
    I have no idea why this is happening? can you please help me on this issue.

    Hi Aleem,
    Maybe some hidden rules cause this, I suggest use MFCMapi tool to double check whether there is any hidden rules exist.
    Thanks

  • Receiver is getting duplicate emails

    My iphone 5 sends duplicate emails to one receiver.

    If you have Exchange, you can track the email from there to see if that yields any value. You can also turn up the diagnostic logging in Central Admin -> Monitoring -> Configure diagnostic logging -> SQL Server Reporting Services, and selecting:
    Report Server Email Extension
    Report Server Schedule
    Report Server Subscription
    Turn them up to Verbose in the Trace log, then monitor the ULS log when you identify a user who has received duplicate emails.

  • I am getting duplicate emails with roadrunner.

    I am getting duplicate emails from roadrunner.  we've checked preferences and not having any success.

    my .me email address which I don't plan on giving up
    That's fine. 
    On your Mac open System Preferences > iCloud. Switch Mail off then back on.
    Same with your iPhone. Tap Settings > iCloud. Swtich Mail off then back on.
    Restart the Mac.
    Restart your iPhone.  Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button down until the red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPhone. To turn iPhone back on, press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    Hopefully that will prevent duplications.

  • HT1688 I am having issues get my email in one of my mail accounts so I tried to "DELETE" the whole account.  But my phone will not delete a mail account.  And the phone is getting really hot and battery was full 2 hours ago and now at 25%.

    I am having issues get my email in one of my mail accounts so I tried to "DELETE" the whole account.  But my phone will not delete a mail account.  And the phone is getting really hot and battery was full 2 hours ago and now at 25%.

    Well, you don't say what happens when you try to delete the account. So I don't know what else to recommend. However, if your phone is not charging, is that the mains charger or the computer USB? Also, if it not showing any change to battery percentage, then something is wrong with the software. The next step in user troubleshooting after the reset is a restore from backup. However, considering the condition of the phone right now, I would be more than willing to say your backup is going to be corrupt. But you can try. If that does not fix the device, then you restore as new, not from a backup. If the phone works, then you can try restoring the backup again, but if it messes up, you are going to have to restore as new again. If the restore as new does not work, then you need to make an appointment at the Genius Bar or Authorized Apple Service Provider to get the hardware checked.

  • Getting DUPLICATE email attachments of videos taken

    I took video using the phone's own camera app and forwarded it to my email ONCE. Now, I am getting duplicate emails of this same video attachment every time I open my email. Has anyone experienced this? How can I fix it?
    Also, every time I open my email, it says "Cannot Send Mail - An error occurred while delivering this message." Then at the bottom it keeps saying "Sending 2 of 6" or "Sending 1 of 6", etc. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

    Both issues are ones normally experienced when there is an issue with the mail account not the iPhone...
    If you've already tried a hard reset...then I'd remove the mail account from iPhone...then add it back....this usually fixes synchro and dup item issues...

    I am getting duplicate emails in my Outlook inbox. How do I stop this?

    Tell them to use "Plain Text" when sending you the email, not RTF. Or, get this:

    I am locked out of iTunes because I can't remember the answer to my security questions, and my 'rescue email' is one that I no longer have access to... Help!

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; this can be done by phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, or clicking here and picking a method, or if your country isn't listed in either article, filling out and submitting this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

  • I get duplicate emails for iCloud since converting to iOS 5.0

    Since upgrading to iOS 5.0 and converting from MobileMe to ICloud I get duplicate emails for same acount.  It's like a MobileMe account and a Icloud account...
    Plus I don't have any "On My Iphone" calanders, reminders, contacts, etc..  Not sure but maybe related...
    Help please and thanks you!

    My recommendation would be to go to iTunes on the computer, under LIBRARY find the APPS tab and at the bottom it should say 9 Available Updates. Click on this, then you can update them from iTunes. To get them on your phone, go to Settings > General > iTunes Wi-Fi Sync (if you have iCloud set up).

  • HT1694 Why am a getting duplicate emails to my hotmail account?

    Why am I getting duplicate hotmail messages on my iPad?

    Do you see duplicates if you setup mail on your computer? This will help isolate the problem a bit, to find out if it's just with the iPad.
    And, what server settings are you using for your hotmail account? Don't include the username/password or email address.
