Default Duplicate Mails received

I would be grateful for any thoughts on how I might resolve the
following situation.

My wife and I share the same computer.

It runs Windows ME.

We log in as different users and have separate profiles.

We share a single email address.

We used to receive all of our mail just once. However ever since I
inadvertently installed a different copy of Outlook Express we have
been receiving all email twice. Once when my wife checks email and then
again when I check email.

The Outlook Express inadvertently installed is version 6. I do not know
what version of Outlook Express I was using before.

I believe that both profiles/identities use the same Pop3uidl.dbx file.
- When I delete the file both identities retrieve all of the email
retained on the server of my provider.

Any suggestions as to how I could revert to the previous (ideal)
situation where we receive only one copy of each file would be
appreciated.
