duplicate emails when sending group emails

[sierrapeac]

Does anyone know if this is a setting in exchange that I should use for sending group emails? I am having a problem when I send a group email all the recipients receive two copies of the email. When I reply to an email or send an email to one user the recipient only receives one copy. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Do you have any delegates etc setup on the mailboxes in question ?

I don't have any delegates selected.

The group itself in not member of the group by mistake is it?
Or, another group which has the same recipients? _{If the answer is here, mark it, others can benefit from it too. If 'something' 'somewhere' gives 'some' error, excpect random guesses or no replies at all. Please specify details.

Sounds like you have a group within a group. I think the later service packs for Exchange 5.5 corrected this, but I'm not sure.

Check the Members of the groups you sent the email to.. example:

You have the group:

-All Employees
-Engineering
-Admin

and you placed the Engineering group and Admin group inside All Employees.

When you email All Employees the groups also get it, meaning, you send a copy to All Employees, Engineering and Admin. If a users happens to be in all 3 groups, he/she will get 3 copies....

I found that placing a group within a group with Exchange Server 5.5 is a no-no.. cause I got this same problem once.

Hope this helps.
