Patricia, That seems a straight forward infra/other issue. Naively, seems someone could iterate through all the relevant lists and then deduplicate emails (wouldn't catch all - in instance that you have different email addresses in different lists -- but probably would reduce lots of duplicate messaging). Though, invites the question if direct messages might get caught by spam while messages to specific lists wouldn't. I would be happy to do this for the sake of reducing email to many, should it be deemed the sensible solution and granted the needed access to do so.
