I have noticed some mailers lately that are sending out two copies of mail. One gets routed directly to my list and the other goes to outer space somewhere and then gets routed back. You could be experiencing a similar problem. Have there been any changes on your local systems lately? I don't get duplicate posting consistently and I haven't been able to track down the cause. My biggest pain right now is that microsoft.com seems reply to the list with copies going both to the list and to the list owner. Maybe I could call software support and ask them to fix their internal system?
