Outlook Express Sends Multiple emails Steven[ at ]nospam.net 6/16/2007 3:48:07 PM A friend of mine has recently had problems with the Outlook Express built into Windows XP. When he forwards a message 10 or 15 copies of the same message get sent instead of just one. If he just creates and sends a new message everything is fine. He has scanned the entire hard disk with an up to date anti-virus program (McAfee) and has no computer viruses. Using System Restore built into XP doesn't help. What could be causing this problem?

Re: Outlook Express Sends Multiple emails "Unknown" <unknown[ at ]unknown.kom> 6/16/2007 4:09:54 PM Do a google search on the internet of 'multiple emails'. There was a history of this happening with antivirus programs. You might want to shut down any virus scan programs and test. <Steven[ at ]nospam.net> wrote in message news:0t0873dvltm69trd5fm38gu8km1h9pr89t[ at ]4ax.com...

Re: Outlook Express Sends Multiple emails Steven[ at ]nospam.net 6/17/2007 4:17:07 AM Do you think if he installed Outlook rather than Outlook Express that the problem would be solved?
