It's mostly Gmail messages that are being affected, but not entirely. A recent non-Gmail message that was duplicated was sent by mokoNinja <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> on 8/16 with: Subject: "Re: Fingerscroll, foofone and more from people.openmoko.org!" Message-id: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> There have been others in the past too; I've noticed them from starband.net, cnlohr.com, and axialys.net. If you want more details, see the messages I've sent to this list such as "Duplicate message troubleshooting" on 7/24. > Plus that RFC you quoted says recommended 30 minute retry but GMail is > retrying every 8 minutes. The RFC says: "In general, the retry interval SHOULD be at least 30 minutes; however, more sophisticated and variable strategies will be beneficial when the SMTP client can determine the reason for non-delivery." (Source: http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2821.html section 4.5.4.1) When I look at the messages I've seen duplicated from Gmail, the first retry is usually after 8-10 minutes but then it backs off to about 20-30 minutes for a message or two, then 1 hour or longer for the rest. Maybe they're trying a "more sophisticated and variable" strategy.
