I'd think so, at least from my perspective. I.e. you assume that there's an independent 'posting to google', in which case of course trouble will happen, be it only the duplicates. But as said, as long as the group takes the list as it's *only* feed, and posting to the group is equivalent to just forwarding email to the list, where the envelope sender is the user under which the google group is subscribed and the From is that of the posting user, all should be fine. I don't know at all how it's currently implemented. All I say is that, from the technical pov, proxying any list through such a group should be feasible, without incurring major troubles. Sidenote: I've been thinking myself these days about how to 'mirror' or 'proxy' mailing lists via a news server, with posting capability. The setup detailed above essentially is how I would do it.
