After a long period of not seeing double I am again seeing double...
I've always held that it's valuable to fess up when you do something dumb in IT.
So Bishop, today is my day in the confessional.... laugh it up, enjoy and hopefully this might help someone some day. :)
Apparently Thunderbird can grab a message twice when you have two computers, both using IMAP, both with the same message filters.
Yes, I had over looked that I had filter rules on a laptop that I don't often use which I had opened up to use at another location and then left on (thinking it was asleep because the screen was blank).
Because both clients are using IMAP, I had assumed (wrongly) that the first client to get to the message would do the business. I was wrong.
It seems that both clients would get the message and both 'move' the message from the inbox to my Geekzone subfolder.
I had thought that this was the whole point of IMAP, that it wouldn't do this sort of thing, clearly not.
