Recently switched from Outlook Express to Outlook (Office 2003)

I have my email settings to "leave a copy on the server" for 6 days (so I
can access via webmail while on the road).

Everytime I close Outlook and re-launch it re-downloads all the emails
still on the server.

How do I change settings so it only downloads each message once and never
again?

Alias is flat-out wrong. When you see the problem you describe, it's an
issue with Outlook not remembering which messages it has downloaded.
Several things can cause this, one of which is a problem in the mail
profile. You can usually fix this problem with a new mail profile. Also,
you should read this: http://www.howto-outlook.com/faq/duplicates.htm
