[imp] EAS, Android client: incoming mail sent 4x to client?

Thanks for the replies, Michael and Simon.

My partner's phone is out of action and will probably get a factory  
reset soon, so I might look at this again then.

Meanwhile I brought horde up to date (webmail-5.2.1 -> 5.2.6) and  
decided to wipe and try it with my SIII.  (Nice to see wipe works,  
never tried it before!)  The mux'ed message issue didn't crop up, sure  
enough; but unfortunately that was because the phone refused to sync  
anything in my inbox that was *newer* than the end of April, and  
nothing new showed up after that either.

I do have a couple of hundred messages in my inbox, plus a lot more in  
subfolders, so this might well be part of the problem.  Generally I  
think I'm best to chalk it up to Flaky Android Client Syndrome and  
move on, making do with a plain old IMAP server for the email side of  
things.

Thanks,
Robin Bankhead
