    Re: "&e", even Google couldn't help me with that. All I could find is that it gets a lot of use after "imho".

    If I haven't already said this, I think members who benefited from endeavor's testing (I did)
    should definitely "tip the scales" (I did) on post# 1452

    Shortcut to the scales on post# 1452:

    It takes a lot of effort to set up test environments and ensure that plain vanilla Windows is running. We all have our favorite utilities and they cannot be used in a pure test.

    That plus all of the msgs endeavor was willing to analyze. Above and beyond the call of duty in my book.

    OK. I gave him the rep for post 1452. Then I wanted to give him another for his explanation of "e" in post 1473 (even more helpful to me) but was informed that I must spread it around before I can rep him again.

    Oh no. New Problem


    Just when I was so excited about my Windows mail working, I find out that it is sending everyone two copies of each email. I tested this extensively tonight by sending many emails to all my email addresses and sure enough they all go as duplicates. Has anyone ever had this crazy problem before?

    Hi kewl1,

    Yes that happens when you have possibly another email client like Outlook installed and both are not setup correctly, or that somehow there is two accounts listed, at any rate either of which is easy to fix. By the way, what have you recently done different, install or otherwise, when this started happening compared to the other day when it was fine?

    I could type different scenarios out for you, but thought lets empower you to succeed on your own so I'll give you a link and you you can research the few simple steps to fix it.

    Please let us know which situation you had of the pick, and which resolve worked to fix your situation.

    This has been going on for a while but only since I got the new laptop and have been trying to fix Windows Mail. It must as you say have something to do with duplicate accounts. I phoned my ISP today and they said there is nothing at their end and it has to be in my software. They said to call MS but somehow I didn't think MS would help me with Windows Mail on my Windows 7 machines.

    I suspect now that it has something to do with dragging and dropping files. This was done on both laptops because the IE11 problem even affected the old laptop. Now that I am pointed in the right direction I will do some more experimenting tonight when I can find some time. I will also check to see if I have Windows Mail somehow running in both the 32 and 64 bit folders if that is possible.

    Ahh and also now that I think of it, I use Outlook only for my business email but same ISP etc and it is not affected ie neither sending nor receiving duplicates.

    Thanks again for your help.

    It's not the things you mention at the end of your first paragraph, and your last paragraph tells you it's not the ISP nor do I think that was ever a possibility in your case. Nor is it both 32 & 64 running. When you are investigating things on Google or any engine, be 'discerning' to all the things that are written here and there, and consider the ones that ring true.

    I was pointing you more in the lines with, while WinMail is open, go up to the top tab of
    Tools> Accounts ...and in here do you have two of the same accounts listed, etc..

    Also if what you are meaning by dragging and dropping, well if you are doing it in the
    C:\Users\-yourcomputername-\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Mail
    folder, then you have to be very careful in how you do that, since usually if you are trying to bring one WinMail store up to date on another computer, you have to replace the entire folder and not just copy into it, because if you do then you will end up with duplicate emails and multiple accounts if they are different between each setup.

    Yep solved the problem for me with the duplicates. But now unbelievably I am back to having the "Windows has stopped Working" problem but after fading and freezing it restarts after a minute so I think I will remove IE11 again
