 Huh. I guess the ASF MTA doesn't like me, then.


The only time I evr get duplicates is when my (receiving) mail server 
gets overloaded and fails to process the message within the 5 minute 
'timeout' value imposed by the sending server. The sender 'gives up' to 
retry, and the receiver finishes delivering the mail before noticing the 
connection has dropped.


That's exactly what was happening to me yesterday. It took me a little 
while to track down what was happening, and why, and fix it.


Sometimes 256MB just ain't enough. :)
