Phil your comment certainly is supported by log files and undeliverables returned to postmaster account.
 
Once an email + recipient is processed shouldn't it be removed from the "list" for that smtp process?
 
Any work arounds? How about a program that will validate users and/or hosts before sending?

Had the same problem myself and have stopped using the list facility.
It seems that when it cannot deliver a message ie. unknown mailbox it tries to redeliver all the messages again.
 
cheers

Subject: [IMail Forum] List Server Question/Problem - 2nd posting

This is my 2nd posting of this message. Has this happened to anyone? Can anyone offer some suggestions? 
 
 Each time I post to my list it will email the recipients 2 OR more times.
 
Below is the Imail environment for my list:
 
*Private list
*Posting by Moderator only
*List members ~ 43,000
*SMTP processes allocated in registry = 60
*SMTP processes used for list = 25
*Users per SMTP process = ~ 1,720
*Imail 6.05
*List posting ocurrs off-peak at 23:55 PST
*User.lst has been "scrubbed" fro dupliactes, invalid users, hosts & local users(to avoid looping).
*Hardware & resources is NOT an issue.
 
Any suggestions?
