Hey there guys.

I am having this problem now that I am getting two emails from this sender (also
on my host) several (LOTS of!) times.
One is a 1mb e-mail and another a 6mb e-mail that's a failure notice with the
attached file converted to text (why?!).
This user reports that every message he sends, is delivered tens of times to the
recipients.

Here is an excerpt from the /var/log/maillog. The only bad thing I can tell is
the TIMEOUT for unknown reasons.

Searching the list archive, I found that someone recalled problems with the
.qmail files and deleting recreating the user account.
I did so, and I still has this problem, not sure now b/c the message was sent
before I did so. However the user dir and Maildir does not have a qmail file, as
none of the users of that domain and most of the mails accounts, so that should
be fine.

I should add, that this box is a non-QMT installation, but I would really
appreciate your comments and help on this one, that's getting really annoying!

Help much appreciated.
Regards, Sergio
