More detail: One message from a subscriber's MUA goes to two lists in Mailman because that person is addressing it using To: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] The subscriber (who is not I) is subscribed to both lis1 and list2 (I verified this). I'm also subscribed to both list1 and list2 (also verified). Mailman is the actual recipient of this message. However, being a listserver, Mailman becomes the originator (literally) of two new messages, one for the subscribers of list1 and another for the subscribers of list2. It has to be two messages, because one message has additional headers and a footer added for list1 and the other has headers and a footer added for list2. In fact, Mailman even adds the Sender: header with the list as the sender. I'm subscribed to both list1 and list2, so I'll expect to see two different messages being picked up by my MUA. One message with Sender: [EMAIL PROTECTED] and another with Sender: [EMAIL PROTECTED] This, in fact, is how it worked in a previous list server (ListStar) that I used before Mailman. In Mailman I'm seeing only the message corresponding to list2. My MTA is Postfix and my MUA is Eudora (both running under Mac OS X 10.4.11). I cannot imagine my MUA comparing the two messages and throwing one out, as the message bodies are, in fact, different. Ditto for the MDA and MTA.
