Have tried to search site but cannot find anything recent relating to the issue I have been having for approximately a month now. Prior to that I've had no other issues with my email.
I use Windows Live Mail to download my emails from TalkTalk and I use POP settings.
When checking emails I initially get 1 copy of every new email but then get duplicate copies of emails I've received on previous days. The duplicate emails only go back as far as 30 days as I've set WLM to remove emails from server after 30 days. I have also set to remove emails from server when deleted from 'Deleted Items'.
When the duplicates copies of the emails are received, all copies of that email regardless of when initially received become 'Unread' for no known reason regardless of which folder they had been moved to, including the Deleted Items folder. For example, I receive a message today and read it. It will show as 'Read'. A duplicate gets dowloaded tomorrow, not only is it 'Unread' but the one I had read today becomes 'Unread' regardless of which folder I may have moved it to within WML.
I have 2 email accounts and double checked POP settings for them today and looked like the incoming server for one of them needed to be changed to 'mail.talktalk.net'. I changed the setting accordingly. This appears to have just caused 90+ emails to suddenly download, which is a higher volume of emails than is normally received.
It feels like something is not recognising what emails I've already downloaded but cannot work out where that fault lies or how to resolve it.
Has anyone got any ideas or suggestions?
Thanks.
