Hi!

Mailman re-uses the message-id of the original email. In our case an
exchange user is recipient of two mailing-lists. Both mails are
adressed in the original message, both lists distribute the list, two
emails having the same message-id arrive at the Exchange server, which
seems to discard the second mail.

Who's to blame? Mailman for re-using the message-id? Exchange for
dropping the sencond mail on the floor?

Logs:


Mailman generates two mails (note the different Subject: lines):

Nov  5 07:22:47 webmail postfix/cleanup[14648]: CE5BB4C80: warning: header 
Subject: [Rundmail Virchow-Klinikum] Nervenarztpokal from

and sends them (note the identical message-id in the 250 2.6.0
response):

Exchange only delivers one (the first) to the user's mailbox.
