Since upgrading to the new OS recently my mail app has started saving two copies of my sent messages in my sent folder. How do I turn this feature off ???
MacBook Pro (Retina, Mid 2012), OS X El Capitan (10.11.1), null
Check Mail > Preferences... > Composing > Section Composing > de-select Automatically Cc:/Bcc myself
Thanks for the reply ckuan, I have checked and my Automatic reply function was not selected ??
Did you also check your provider server settings?
Is this an Outlook.com address.

Hotmail can (does) now use the Outlook.com servers, so knowing your settings matters.
Open Mail, go to Preferences>Accounts>Hotmail account>Outgoing server (SMTP)>Edit Server>Hotmail. Read the settings from both tabs in there.
ok I've gotten to the server edit and both of my email accounts are listed here ?? what do i do next ??
it only has my email address and the smtp server name, which is outlook.com...

So it is an Outlook account, using an Outlook server. This was a bug at Microsoft's end, they say it has been fixed but it still seems to be affecting some people, question, are the 2 copies of the sent mail in the same folder, or are there 2 sent folders.
OK, is their a fix??
both sent messages are in the same sent box
