        It's not just the recipient, but the exact same recipient 
address.  So, if you're subscribed to the list with one address, and 
they cc: a different address of yours, then the system has no way to 
tell that these are both the same person.

        No, the code doesn't work at the Message-ID level.  It works at 
the level of the listed recipients in the To: and CC: headers.

        If you want filtering done at the Message-ID level, then you need 
to apply that on your end -- either use a program like procmail to 
filter all your incoming mail, or set up your MUA to discard 
duplicates, etc....

        There's nothing more that Mailman can do to help you.
