Scott,

I looked at the headers and it appears that you are correct.  Below is a
copy of the header from the second email message and I did find that
[EMAIL PROTECTED] was on the list.  The question is why is this
recipient setup to forward back to the list?  I can obviously make sure
this particular address is excluded in the future, but what if it
happens again with someone else?

Thanks

Have you compared the headers of the first, second, and third 
E-mails?  That will often provide a clue.  In one recent case, the
original 
E-mail looked fine, but the second/third had a bunch of extra headers
added 
that showed that one of the original recipients was set up to forward
back 
to the list.
