Good replies.

I'd just like to clarify a bit. It's not so much the timeout that causes duplicates, as it is the length of time it takes to scan a message. When the timeout period (in Outlook or spamdyke) is shorter than the scan time, the session will time out, causing the sending host to resend, which results in duplicates. BL, be sure that scanning (spamassassin and clamav) is being done efficiently, and there is no bottleneck happening there. The spamd log is a good place to check for this.

Note that spamdyke's TIMEOUT messages in the smtp log are often 'normal', and no cause for alarm. These happen when spamming hosts do not end the smtp session gracefully after being given a rejection message.

If you’re using Spamdyke, look in the /etc/spamdyke/spamdyke.conf file.
  There’s a timeout in there also that will cause duplicates.

I am having this same issue occasionally on Thunderbird. Are you
adjusting it on the server, and if so where do you change it?

The messages are coming from outside the company to one of my peeps.

Thanks in advance!
