Exchange 2003 SP2 Windows 2003 SP1 We are getting instances where messages are being delivered to an Exchange mailbox and then every 2-3 hours the message is being delivered again. On further investigation the original message was sent from an external source and passed through our mail filter software and was delivered correctly to the mailbox. The sender of the message is a legitimate sender. The message has now been delivered 6 times to the same mailbox over the course of a day. The message is not coming again from an external source as the mail filter logs are not showing any new messages from the sender. The message tracking on the Exchange Server shows the same Message Id being delivered to the same address. If anyone can shed any light on what the problem is I would be most grateful. Andrew
