If the situation is as you explained, could the result be that I can find the e-mail to one mailing list member in 10 copies in XMail queue that are all trying to deliver? I suppose if "XMail consider the delivery as failed", it should try to deliver it again but not to make another message in its queue and try to deliver both the new one *and* the original one.
