well heres one thing that does it...

say u send a mesage and it fails, it auto saves in drafts as well, click the link to resend, the delete the errored message from the threaded txt..this should delete it from ur drafts as well, on stock 6.1 at least..

the reason for this is, everytime to soft reset, your drafted(errored only) messages auto send once you get signal on the restart..

i know not a major fix fo you, but it will cut it down..

oh yeah, also if you lose/regain signal alot(go in and out of roam) all those uncleared "resend now" message will resend everytime untill you deleted said erroed message

Ive had it happen a few times to me where I would get repeats from someone or vice versus. I usually reboot and Im fine.

I had the same problem the text was stuck in my outbox. I tried to delete it, but would not leave! Everytime I rebooted the phone, it would send the same message. After getting another remain phone, it went away. (5th remain phone in one month!)
