A number of mailing lists I subscribe to generate large numbers of duplicate posts which TB! doesn't pick up.
On examining the "non-duplicate duplicates", it seems that the problem is related to Yahoo! (and others) appending footers to the email thus: ------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor ---------------------~--> Get your FREE credit report with a FREE CreditCheck Monitoring Service trial http://us.click.yahoo.com/Gi0tnD/bQ8CAA/ySSFAA/3mLolB/TM ---------------------------------------------------------------------~-> The problem is that the piece after '...yahoo.com/' is some sort of hash, semi-randomly generated _for each email_ for, I presume, tracking purposes. Of course a simple algorithm would not know that there is no difference to the _body_ of the email. A fix would be for TB!'s duplicate algorithm to pass over all URLs in emails. (Because several mailing list providers seem to have a lot of server problems, producing duplicate posts by error, an improved check would probably remove 15-20 per cent of my mailbox!)
