Re: Duplicate messages



Yes, I'm using fetchmail.  I think it's set up with the normal -k option
(although I will check that, my brother set it up for me).  I watch the
verbose output and I see it purging messages.  So normally it gets rid
of them.

I just can't figure out why SOME messages--not all--show up twice.
