Thunderbird – i get duplicate e-mail for hotmail.com address
August 1st, 2016
TB is up to date.
You don’t happen to have the same account added twice do you?
Tools / account setting.
Check to see if the account is there twice. If so, you can safely delete the duplicate one.
Nope. There is only one hotmail.com account.
OKkkkkk…another thought then …
Do you have your hotmails emails being forwarded to another account? Thunderbird would download the same message from both hotmail and the other one if so.
Head to outlook.com / click the option cog / options / email forwarding.
Anything there?
Nope, i did not touch nothing. It is all ok in TB and in e-mail too.
p.s. i do not get notification e-mail when is new message posted. I subscribed from the first post and still is checked.
Email 101
99% of problems are solved by removing the account and adding it again (backup pst beforehand)
The other 1% is expecting rubbish protocols like imap and pop3 to function like Exchange.
