Just before we start, I just hate email (TM) :-(.

I am looking, at the patches generated by "gfpm" alias just have one of
each.  Looking into my INBOX.

You are right,  I also have duplicate In-Reply-To and Reference fields.
No clue if the problem is with git or mailer.  If it makes any
difference, this is git:


(trasno *)$ rpm -qa git
git-1.7.10.4-1.fc17.x86_64

alias gfpm='/usr/bin/git format-patch --signoff --find-renames 
--thread--cover-letter
alias gsend-qemu='/usr/bin/git send-email --smtp-server=smtp.corp.redhat.com 
--bcc=quint...@redhat.com --from="Juan Quintela <quint...@redhat.com>" 
--suppress-cc=self --to=qemu-devel@nongnu.org'

cd $QEMU_DIR
gfpm master -o /tmp/folder/
<edit cover letter until happy>
gsend-qemu /tmp/folder/*patch

I have always send the emails this way (this is why I have the alias).

Command line, redhat server is zimbra (I think it has postfix
underneath, but I would not trust my memory so much).

As said, the generated file with git-format-patch, only have one header
field of each, but the mail that I receive have it duplicated.

I also see them, just that I don't get the warning from my mailer.
Anyone has any clue?  I think that the commands that I use are the
"normal" way to send multi-patches series?  And what is more, nobody
complained in the past.
