The problem is that for each delivery attempt it successfuly delivers the message to the maildir (ldap delivery) but gives a deferral for the .qmail delivery (for instance deferral: /bin/sh:_/usr/bin/zbr: _No_such_file_or_directory/) so the message stays on queue. This repeats later on giving the queue retrial, resulting in multiple deliveries => duplicate messages. -- Jose Celestino | http://xpto.org/~japc/files/japc-pgpkey.asc ---------------------------------------------------------------- "Don't summarize.
