Thanks Roberto, it doesn't really bother me 'cos read by thread in mutt makes it's pretty trivial to delete duplicates as I zap through the posts from various debian lists. I really must get the appropriate line in my muttrc to de-dupe automatically; I read the man page but haven't stumped up the courage to try it in case I lose something important. Perhaps a test account might be prudent :) This is one feature hat I missed when I switched away from Cyrus as my IMAP server. Cyrus has the ability to identify duplicate messages (even from different sources, like when someone replies to you on list and CCs you). If it notices that a message is a duplicate of one that has already been delivered, it will not deliver it again. Very handy. -Roberto -- Roberto C.

Well I'm using dovecot IMAP; I must check out whether it has something simliar although it probably can be configured in exim4?
