I have subscribed to Mandrake Lists for about three years now.

I am a Mandrake user/beta-tester since 5.2 days.

However the Sympa List used by Mandrake seems to have more
multiple messages than any Lists I have ever used. Why is this?

If it was only myself I would claim total ignorance which is
often the case anyway.

The fact many others receive two, three and four repeat messages
does not seem reasonable to me at all. I am not claiming to
have any answers to this problem, but have subscribed to high 
volume Lists, which year after year reliably and effeciently perform
their tasks without the Mandrake "glitches".

Keep up the fine cutting edge work folks but PLEASE could someone
address this issue, or tell us how to stop it on our machines
if the List is not able to track down the global problem?

BTW is it still protocol to allow only subscribers to submit to
this List? I hope so, the high volume is the price we "subscribers" pay.
I believe it was last year or so when this poicy was introduced
mainly due to spamming, but the issue of "high volume" can
be address by those no wishing to subscribe by checking the "Archives"
accessible from Mandrake's Home Page. I know as I often have done
it myself. :)


Thanks
