I am really not sure how you are attributing this to anything on my end, but |
| 2 |
I can assure you ... that is not the case. I noticed a couple of other |
| 3 |
messages were also duplicated from other posters. There is or was something |
| 4 |
wrong with the gentoo.org MTA. |

Most likely the list server believed the message may not have been |
| 21 |
delivered, so it sent the message a second time on the assumption that two |
| 22 |
copies of the message is better than none. The reason it thinks this can |
| 23 |
be either something on its end or on yours. |

If you want no duplicates (note that this will cause you to only get one |
| 27 |
copy of messages that are sent both to you and to the list, as this |
| 28 |
message is), you can use this very simple procmail recipe: |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
:0 Wh: msgid.lock |
| 31 |
| formail -D 8192 ${PMDIR}/msgid.cache |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
I actually have this recipe applied after I filter lists into seperate |
| 34 |
Maildirs - before list filtering I use a modified version which applies |
| 35 |
only to mailing lists, thereby allowing group replies to be seen in both |
| 36 |
my inbox and the list. If you want to do that, copy this recipe to |
| 37 |
somewhere before you filter lists and change the cache and lock file |
| 38 |
names. Then add between the two lines above this condition line, or one |
| 39 |
rather like it which catches all mailing lists you receive: |
| 40 |
|
| 41 |
* (^(((X-)?Mailing-List)|List-Id):) |
| 42 |
|
| 43 |
Now if only spam were this easy to catch and kill.. ;) |
