Hm.
I've just constructed such case:
# head -1 /etc/aliases
mobst: :include:/tmp/mobst
# cat /tmp/mobst
mobst (it's a local user)
heiko (it's a local user)
# exim4 -v -bv mobst

<-- [EMAIL PROTECTED]
router = localuser, transport = local_delivery

router = localuser, transport = local_delivery
# exim4 -bV

So - I can't see that duplicate delivery *would* happen. What does
'exim4 -v -bV' show on your system?
