How to eliminate duplicate emails from Outlook

Why do I have duplicate emails?

There are many reasons why your Outlook mailbox can end up storing duplicate emails. Here are the most common ones:

- you have synchronized your Outlook profile with a mobile device and somehow the synchronization process went wrong;

- you have imported email messages to your Outlook profile from other Outlook data files (PST or OST files): it can happen that the same email was stored in both locations, causing it to become duplicated after the import task;

- you have started a Send & Receive process, but Outlook or your email server stopped responding before all emails were received. If so, the next Send & Receive process will restart from zero, so the emails that were already received end up as duplicate emails in your inbox;

- you have multiple alias names for the same email account defined in your Outlook profile and you received the same email on multiple alias names.
