You may not want to use your email as a user name on a public Forum.
You'll wind up with a ton of emails once the spambots latch on to that....

I've done this using gmail or yahoo ect. Sometime the webpage freeze or hang and I click the send button again, then when it goes through I see it sent it a few times...

This can happen if you have antivirus software scanning incoming mail. I've seen it with Norton's email scanner most often, but a couple of times with other AV packages.
Unless it is ALL email ALL the time then I would say that's the most likely culprit.

an av emailscanner is only for virus's etc and it would stop them or warn you


these are coming through i think its only a mistake on the senders part
