=F3=88=B8=A6Rich,
Thanks for your helpful input. I think you could well have something =
here since NTL has just done a lot of working upgrading their service. =
By what they suggested to me, I think they realised this afternoon that =
the fault does lie with them.
I shall be watching things over the coming days and need to have more =
talks with them on several matters so hope this can soon be resolved.
Thanks again.

Hi Carol
Late in on this one but here are my thoughts.
Back over Easter NTL and many other ISP's upgraded the capacity of their =
mail servers. Why they should have done this simultaneously I have no =
idea, but the point is that during this time I was receiving numerous =
copies of list mails and even some individual mails from friends etc. =
You can get quite paranoid about duplicates and spend hours fruitlessly =
trying to find a cause on your PC. It's my experience that the fault =
lies with the Mail Servers and not with you. Frequently they are not =
aware of the problem and it is resolved during their routine =
maintenance. It's just a matter of patience. Each ISP has a number of =
servers spread round the country and if you know enough about these =
things it is possible to change the server you are logged to. Perhaps =
someone else on the list knows how to do this. I've been walked through =
it with NTL tech support before but couldn't tell you how with any =
confidence. Rich
