Gmail X2

    I use POP3 for receiving my email but everytime someone sends an email to my gmail account it arrives twice. Once I do a Send/Receive in Outlook Express it receive every email sent to my gmail address twice, mail to any of my other accounts only come once.

    Anyone know why this is?

    :confused:

    Check using webmail to see if they are being sent twice to your gmail account. It may be only recieving it once in your webmail but forwarding to outlook twice.

    Thanks for suggesting that AlmightyCushion because it made me check my settings in the Webmail.

    Yes Gmail was only receiving the mail once but I had mail forwarding enabled (Done this prior to setting Gmail up in my POP3) so I was receiving the original mail plus the forwarded one.

    All sorted.

    :D
