Description
Checklist
- I have used the search function to see if someone else has already submitted the same bug report.
- I will describe the problem with as much detail as possible.
App
K-9 Mail
App version
11.0
Where did you get the app from?
F-Droid
Android version
13
Device model
Fairphone 3
Steps to reproduce
- Send email (with outlook.com account, not tested with others)
- Note that sent folder contains 2 copies of the email when viewed through outlook.com (only contains a single message when viewed through K9)
Expected behavior
A single copy
Actual behavior
Android (only one entry):
outlook.com (two entries):
Sometimes the emails are direct duplicates (so far as I can see), but sometimes the to field is different - on the second email it gets replaced with something of this format: outlook_986188D25A21AC9A@outlook.com (which is annoying if I come back to it, reply all to that message to continue the converstion, and then get a "could not be delivered" message from outlook).

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue with an Outlook.com account on Android 13, then inspect the attached k9mail-logs (1).txt while comparing the sent folder in K-9 Mail and Outlook.com. Done means sending one message results in one sent copy and does not replace the recipient with an undeliverable Outlook address.
