    Not sure why, but since last week I am getting two copies of each email in my inbox. I have not encounterd such an issue earlier ever but these ones are messing up with my inbox’s data. Hence, now I am grid to halt and its becoming hard to go for something that I want to get.

    Is there anyone who can help me out of this.

    Thanks
    Barry

    Which Outlook Account are you working on? I mean POP or IMAP.

    All right Barry.

    There might be many reasons to receive duplicate emails.Have you installed any antivirus? I am just asking because many anti-virus programs can cause this issue. If your email is large, then the software causes a “timeout”. As a result you receive Duplicate emails.

    I think antivirus software is not causing the issue. The second part of the your’s answer seems quite helpful. So, can you please tell me how I can deal with it, timeout error (whatever the term you have addressed in your reply).

    Hello Barry

    You can increase your server timeout settings to 5 minutes by following given below steps:

    In Outlook 2010:

    Click on “File” Tab >> “Account Settings” >> “Account Settings” >> Click on your existing emails account >> “More Settings” >> “Advanced Tab” >> Move on the “Server Timeout” Section, click on arrow & Increase from 1 minute to 5 minutes.
