The only times that I've downloaded mail twice was when I lost my connection during the download. Then Thor will get it again until it has downloaded all of your mail. I think even this can be configured so that you don't have to go back and get that mail again. In addition, if you think you've downloaded duplicates, there is a menu option to delete them. Eric D.
