Help Getting duplicate Emails after changing a Gmail setting--how do I rectify this?

Lord Vader

I think this is my fault, so I need to change it back but forgot how.

Yesterday I went into my Gmail account and changed a setting, I think under the accounts/forwarding tab, and now every time I receive an Email in my Hotmail account, which is my primary one, I get duplicates. Two of every Email come in. This is rather annoying and clutters up everything, so I'm trying to figure out what setting dumbass me changed and how do I change it back.

Any suggestions?

you changed a setting from a computer...or on the phone???

are you using the htc mail app or the gmail app?
 
I was on my PC and signed in to my Gmail account, where I made the changes, but now I can't remember what it was before I made the changes. As far as the HTC stock app or Gmail app, both are on my phone, but that is irrelevant, because they were there before I made the changes.
 
Can't find a setting to restore defaults on Gmail. Might need to Email Google Gmail Supports and see if they can help ya out.

it's not irrelevant...I needed to know where you made the changes (within those apps or on the web)

ie the convo could have been a back and forth one question at a time deal...rather I ask every question I may need answered...all cause and effect

had you answered : I changed the settings on my phone...I then would have needed to know which app you were using on your phone.


while on the web click on settings in top right

check the settings at forwarding and pop and make sure you are not forwarding mail to yourself

and check accounts and import and make sure you haven't added doubles...

that is all I can find right now
 
Your post helped me to remember which simple adjustment I had made, so I just changed it back. I think my own confusion came in when I was fiddling around with the settings that got Gmail to push my Hotmail Emails to my EVO.
 
I also have the same problem and cannot figure out how to stop it. I see no one has responded with a solution. Did you figure it out?
