And people complain that authors don't respond.
(Sorry, I couldn't resist. Now someone help this guy.)
I received a duplicate PM recently, so it could be a gremlin in the mail centre having some fun...

That's usually somebody sending a message and the page not updating for a few seconds and them clicking send again.

This could be alleviated by having one of the first actions of the button script being to disable or hide the button or change the button text to 'Sent', or something similar.
ETA: If the browser saves the messagebox state on closing, could it be the user restarting the browser so getting the message back? I'm sure that there's at least one browser extension which does something similar, to autofill forms.

There is an even chance you'll receive it again on the 12th.
If you had received the original on the 7th, then again on the 9th and 11th, that would be odd.
Males can be weird. "What does it mean weird mean?
very strange and unusual."
"Men often accuse women of being the more confusing sex—and to be fair, women can certainly be perplexing (even to ourselves!)—but the truth is that the less fair sex's behavior patterns can be just as mind-boggling. While not all men are guilty of odd behaviors and weird ways of thinking, we've rounded up 30 guy behaviors that often have us shaking our heads.
1. When his best friend calls to announce he and his wife just welcomed a new baby, he can't recall that baby's name or even its gender. He can, however, remember nearly every LeBron James stat dating back to his high school days.
2. His obsession with breasts. Every single woman has them—including your grandmother. You'd think by your mid-twenties, you'd be able to focus on women's faces.
3. When a woman says "nothing is wrong", he actually believes it. (By "nothing," we actually mean "everything," as in, the sky is falling and you should seriously duck for cover.)
4. He considers driving around lost for hours an "adventure." Avoiding getting lost is why the every city and state road department makes maps, why iPhone come equipped with GPS, and pretty much why friendly gas station attendants and rest area monitors exist.
5. Catcalling in general. When men scream, "hey baby!" as they fly past in a moving car, what exactly is the expectation? That we'll take off after you in our four-inch-heels, screaming out our digits as we run? While the success rate of catcalling is approximately zero percent, it continues.
6. How he can sink a three-point shot on the basketball court, but somehow still miss the hamper when it comes to tossing dirty clothes.
7. Combing his hair to the side—you're not fooling anyone. Embrace your receding hairline, you're still sexy!
8. His insistence on supporting the home team even though he hasn't lived in his hometown for approximately 15 years.
9. That he'd rather play Defense of the Ancients for approximately nine hours straight when he could be, you know, doing anything else—including having sex with us!
10. Adjusting themselves in public. While we get that an uncomfortable sensation must be involved, is it really necessary to make these tweaks in public? Would it not be more polite to excuse yourself to a private space, then return fully adjusted and ready to relax?
11. How a full-grown man can miss the toilet bowl. C'mon now.
12. Insisting he's the better driver. Insurance companies charge young men the highest premiums of any gender or age group for a reason, and it's not for their superior, accident-free driving skills.
13. The weird nicknames men give their friends. One friend is Pork Chop because he's a total ham; another is Dale when his name is actually Ben; and last names as nicknames abound. What's so weird about using your friends' first names?
14. The amount of time men spend in the bathroom. Honestly, our biological needs are functionally the same—are there not more pleasant places to catch up on the latest issue of GQ?
15. How men doggedly pursue women until they finally give in to meeting for drinks, and then drop a gal like a bad habit after a first date. If it was all about the chase, why not just stand a woman up instead and try again the next day?
16. Why men still think kegs are cool.
17. How quickly men can get distracted. A conversation walking along a sidewalk on any given afternoon might go a little something like this: "So, we were at the bar and this guy came up and—oh! Look! A squirrel!" But what happened at the bar?!
18. The lack of interest in developing truly fantastic dancing skills. Surprise! Grinding up against a woman does not count as dancing—and guys who can really dance are seriously sexy.
19. How squeamish men get about periods. Sometimes a woman can't even say the word without eliciting a nose-bunching facial reaction.
20. Why they often prefer to have a women end a relationship—even if they've already checked out weeks ago. Why not just end it?
21. The inability to multitask. Sometimes a simple question asked during a favorite TV show will have to wait until commercial time. (Though, to be fair, ladies are probably guilty of this one too.)
22. How some men absolutely hate shopping. Seriously, is it that awful?
23. The reluctance to ever properly answer the question, "What are you thinking." It's not a quiz, and it shouldn't be that exasperating—women are just interested!
24. How men's tolerance for pain is inversely proportional to their tolerance for filth.
25. How even the toughest guy becomes a child upon catching even a cold.
26. The pleasure men take in peeing outdoors. Is it really that intoxicating?
27. Some men's need to own the newest, most expensive tech—even when his existing gadgetry is perfectly fine. (In reality, this behavior can often also play out in reverse.)
28. Why they constantly ask others where they put their keys, wallet, etc. Is the expectation that everyone is really watching?
29. That sex is the answer to everything. We just broke up, so we should have breakup sex. We just made up, so we should have makeup sex. You just got a promotion, so we should have celebration sex. You seem tense, we should have sex. Sometimes, a good talk or a great dinner is just as good of a solution.
30. The tendency to keep clothes far beyond their prime. They may not think that others notice the little holes at the elbow, but folks do.

The only automation in the mail system is the deletion of read messages after a year and unread messages after two years.
There is nothing in the mail system that somehow automatically sends something again and again.
It's him sending it over and over.
I mentioned the multiple emails to him, and he said that HE is getting multiple copies of my original emails. He did not say whether he was responding each time or not.
