Here is another possible cause of this problem, which I find among many of
the people I support.

If your Outlook (or Outlook Express) mail setttings for POP3 are set to keep
messages on the mail server and the mailbox on the mail server exceeds 25MB,
Outlook and Outlook Express may time out on retrieving messages and start
over to retrieve the messages again. This also depends on your Internet
connection speed and computer's performance; if all messages are able to
retrieve in Outlook or Outlook Express before the timeout occur, this
problem is not visible.

The solution is to change your mail settings in Outlook or Outlook Express
not to keep messages on the mail server.

This also leads in to another problem, how to remove duplicate e-mails in
Outlook or Outlook Express.

Dear, My Outlook 2003 is receiveing the same e-mails messages many
times (every time the outlook 2003 send/receive) , it receives the
messages again. I think there's a patch from microsoft to solve this
problem, but I do not know where to get it

Or, if Milly's idea doesn't help, to try a new mail profile or make sure
Office SP2 is installed.
