    Depends !

    Do you mean you have two copies of it in your Sent Items or do you just mean the other person is receiving two copies at their end ?

    Could be a a variety of reasons depending on the circumstances

    I only have one in the sent items but sometimes the other person recives two copies, we use Exchange 2003. I have deleted my Outlook profile and will see if that makes a difference.

    No - it's not your end - it's at theirs.

    Particularly if they are operating a POP account you can get a delay in the connection to the POP box and that can produce two copies of an incoming email. Could also be that they have some rules implenmented incorrectly at their end which are causing duplicates, but it's not your side of things.

    Groovy.

    (Was going to suggest you tried setting up your Exchange account on another machine - test and see if it happened on that one also...then you'd at least know if it was Outlook or Exchange...)

    ...Do you mean that a few different users have sent duplicated emails.....or just that a few different users have received the duplicated emails from you?

    ...You said that the users receiving the double emails are all on the same network as you...

    ...but, do the duplicates only happen when you are sending a group email?...

    ...also, the email where everyone on your network received it twice, were there any external addresses listed on that?

    No the duplicates happen even if I send it to one person, and there was no external email addresses.

    I am the only user it happens to.

    See what happens now you've deleted your outlook profile...

    ...if it does happen again, try opening up your Exchange account on another PC...

    Rob1234,

    Questions:
    1. Which client operating system are you using?
    2. Which kind of domain are you logging into?
