it's not just the uses bob, but almost all of the other users on the
domain. I have found a new connection (I think!) that could cause it.
All the users that has this problem has a username that contains _
(underscrore) like bob_dknyt and michelle_dknyt. They have this so that
we can sort the users by domain easily.
the only users that get their own mail is the ones that doesnt have
unserscore in their name (their mails go to the other box too though).
Is there a problem with having unserscore in usernames on raq3?
Why is the mail going into this paticular users box
(michelle_dknyt@xxxxxxxx) and not into one of the others?

Are you using the .forward?
You say that even the names without un underscore go to the other box too.
This indicates some forwarding.
It sounds like the forwarding is set up incorrectly.
