Wow - it worked! I sit corrected.. :-)

It looks horribly like an Outlook bug or a POP/IMAP server bug as the headers 
are identical, meaning they are actually the same message.

Viz both messages have:

Received: from mail03.syd.optusnet.com.au (mail03.syd.optusnet.com.au
[211.29.132.184])
        by ozonline.com.au (8.12.11/8.12.11) with ESMTP id jAUAI7Qg004821
        for <spectre at australiaonline.net.au>; Wed, 30 Nov 2005 21:18:07 +1100

Notice the identical times and identical ESMTP ID - that's not a message 
arriving twice, it is really only one email being accepted once - but for 
some reason either Outlook is fetching it twice or your ISPs email server is 
handing it over to you twice.

If I had to pick one of those my bet would be on Outlook.

cheers,
Chris
