Messages duplicated in Sent folder in Thunderbird

Thunderbird Troubleshooting

For some time now, whenever I create and send an email in Thunderbird there are two copies of it in the Sent folder. I can see emails created on my phone in Bluemail, and on the same PC using Windows Mail, but there's only one of each of those. So to me it looks like it's a Thunderbird fault. Any ideas, please?

Go to account settings and tell Thunderbird to stop saving a copy since it is obvious that your provider is already saving a copy.
