Someone asked about duplicate addresses and before I get 100 replies (even if only 1% of the list responds) that is still 100+ replies), I wanted to explain in more detail as to what I was referring. Here are two sample headers from a duplicate message I received from [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Header 1: ------------------------------ Return-Path: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Received: from localhost (mail@localhost) by groupstudy.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with SMTP id LAA23187; Mon, 10 Jul 2000 11:21:43 -0400 Received: by groupstudy.com (bulk_mailer v1.12); Mon, 10 Jul 2000 11:02:49 -0400 Received: (from listserver@localhost) by groupstudy.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) id LAA15512 GroupStudy Mailer; Mon, 10 Jul 2000 11:02:29 -0400 Received: from smtp.rexam.com (smtp.rexam.com [208.229.20.3]) by groupstudy.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id LAA15308 GroupStudy Mailer; Mon, 10 Jul 2000 11:02:14 -0400 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: BSCN Exact objectives Header 2: --------------------------------- Return-Path: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Received: from localhost (mail@localhost) by groupstudy.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with SMTP id LAA23190; Mon, 10 Jul 2000 11:21:44 -0400 Received: by groupstudy.com (bulk_mailer v1.12); Mon, 10 Jul 2000 11:02:47 -0400 Received: (from listserver@localhost) by groupstudy.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) id LAA15453 GroupStudy Mailer; Mon, 10 Jul 2000 11:02:24 -0400 Received: from smtp.rexam.com (smtp.rexam.com [208.229.20.3]) by groupstudy.com (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id LAA15265 GroupStudy Mailer; Mon, 10 Jul 2000 11:02:12 -0400 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: BSCN Exact objectives To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] These headers tell us a lot of information. First off Amil send the E-Mail to groupstudy at the servers time of 11:02:12 (this time may be off but do not worry about it). But if you look at the previous header he also sent the message at 11:02:14. So his SMTP server sent two copies to GroupStudy. Therefore the problem is most likely Amir sent the message twice, not a problem at GroupStudy. By the way, if you continue reading you will see that the message was accepted for delivery at 11:02:47 and sent to me at 11:21:44. So I received the message 19 minutes after the first person received the message. Not bad considering the number of e-mails on the list. By the way, the news feed is always posted before e-mails.
