[WinPartners] Re: [Macpartners] multiple copies received of some e-mails from single list?

In a similar vein, I have a user (Mac OS X, running Eudora 5.2.3) with an 
incredible duplicating message phenomonon.  She leavers her email on the PO 
server, so she can access important messages from both home and MIT.  In 
webmail, her inbox shows single copies of messages.  But when Eudora 
downloads her new mail, she gets duplicates of each message.  This started 
within the past week.  Is this related?
