Entourage downloading old messages

[staceylgoddard]

My entourage program downloaded all my old, deleted messages, which was over 5,000 approx. 2 months ago!! I just opened entourage and it started doing it again. Why is it doing this and how can I stop it???? Thank you!

What kind of email account is it? POP? IMAP? Exchange?

It is a POP account. I have the mail settings set to delete message on server when deleted on my computer.
but that doesn't seem to work.
Thanks for the help!

I just ran into the exact same problem... very frustrating. It happened after I restarted my cable modem & router.
