email

I am using outlook from Microsoft office 10. Every time I receive an
email I get two of the same emails. Can someone help me correct this?
Thank you to all that offer help.

Check you haven't set up duplicate "accounts" in Outlook with identical
details.

Check what client-side rules you have defined in Outlook.
Check what server-side rules you have defined in your e-mail account.

There is no "Microsoft Office 10". So what are you really using? You
are asking in a Windows 10 newsgroup, so "10" might refer to the e-mail
client included in Windows 10 or you shortened "2010" to "10" (which can
be confusing when discussing under the Win10 newsgroup).

What protocol are you using to connect Outlook 2010 (?) to your e-mail
account? POP, IMAP, or EAS (Exchange ActiveSync)? Microsoft dropped
Deltasync support at their email servers (so the Outlook Connector
add-on has no value anymore).

I am using Microsoft office home and business 2010. On the DVD there
is a program outlook. That is the program I use for email.

that would explain the top-posting

I suggest you stop using 'virus outbreak' aka 'Micro-shaft Outlook'
immediately, and pick a better news/mail reader. Thunderbird is
probably a good choice, for starters.

also if you're using POP with 'outlook.com' they have a bug that can
cause multiple copies of incoming mail to appear in your inbox.

Well, no it doesn't. Outlook has settings to top-post or not, whichever
is your preference.

There is nothing wrong with Outlook for mail. You silly, insult-names
for it don't describe it at all.

Outlook cannot do net news.

And Bob also knows there is a difference
between Outlook and Outlook Express.

Outlook Express has OEQuoteFix as an option.

http://home.in.tum.de/~jain/software/oe-quotefix/

And Outlook Express (as such), no longer exists.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outlook_Express

"In Windows Vista, Outlook Express was
superseded by Windows Mail."

And Thunderbird is no better than anything else,
because the source code is 90% a copy of Firefox,
and any exploits that work on Firefox, might
well work on Thunderbird. Switching off HTML
in Thunderbird, not clicking on attachments,
and it might be a bit safer.

He does? There's no evidence of it from what he's written in this
thread.

Now that I look for it I can't find it! I'm looking at Outlook 2007 and
its settings are confusing and scattered all over the place. If there's
no setting to control the location of the reply in this version, maybe
it's in Outlook 97, which is the last version I used regularly?

Dear God. Why are you even mentioning Outlook Express? It's been
unsupported and deprecated for many years. Doesn't even exist in modern
Windows since, what?, Win XP? And it was crap back then.

But it has OEQuoteFix. And is about the only
time you'll catch a Microsoft tool "doing
the right thing" :-) Even if a third-party
had to make an addon to do it.

It's possible Windows Mail works OK, whereas
Windows Live Mail, definitely not. So dragging
forward some crusty old Windows Mail might work.

I'm using Outlook 2016 and I can't find it, nor do I remember seeing
it in any previous version. But if my memory is faulty and it is or
was there, I'd appreciate someone pointing it out.

I have never seen such a native feature in any version of Outlook. I wonder if Nil could be thinking of
Thunderbird, which does have such a featu
