There are people on the lists with broken mail software that resubmits
old traffic back to the list. The listserv has some defenses against
that --- it's supposed to reject message-ids that it's seen before ---
but count on Microsoft to mangle mail messages badly enough to get
around that.
The latest example, which I too just got, looks on inspection of the
headers to be blamable on <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>. The time delay suggests
it was held for moderation, so maybe the software *did* recognize it as
a dup and it was moderator error to let it through.
