This is not really a reply to your question, but a trick that will save you some of the trouble these duplicates cause. I wouldn't notice it if I did receive any duplicates. I have been running procmail as a basic filtering .forward file recipe with the following rule in my ~/.procmailrc file: # -- # Remove duplicate messages using Message-Id caching. :0 Wh: msgid.lock | formail -D 327680 msgid.cache With a 320 kb cache for Message-Id headers, I hardly (if ever) get any duplicate messages anymore. - - Giorgos -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.1 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQE91Cg/1g+UGjGGA7YRArfzAJ9w7ctS+FtussgfJmwz2acEV9t2WwCguIQ8 Oky7/bnMYEssV5LKkLXOLLU= =+bXm -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
