a part of the problem is that there is a "reply-to:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]" in the automatic headers.

since many people still use "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" (which has not
anymore any effect since denis now autotranslates the C in c), any wide
reply will lead to sending it to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a CC to
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

And is there any protection against duplicate signatures? :-))

Hello folks,

I apologize for causing multiple e-mail messages to be sent
to the list.  It was a mailer misconfiguration on my part
which is now fixed.  Sorry again.

lol! Seriously, though, such a procmail filter is a good thing not only
for times like this.  Many mailing lists frequently send occassional
duplicates, and that crushes a good many of the non-human generated
ones.  Sorry, I haven't discovered a solution that safely only kills
duplicates of human origin :p

A short look at the headers shows that all the duplicates came from a news
gateway at cosmic.com. Probably some missconfiguration.

Yes, it is getting more and more annoying. 90% of the mails arrive here at least
twice, I even got some mails 4 times :-(

Just for the protocol: I only receive one mail from each posting, but I only

It is NOT the emailer client,

Likewise out here in Alaska. Its been about a week for me! Thought it
