Hello Mark & List,

>From time to time I have experienced exact duplicate messages
on various lists - although never with private mail. When this happens,
I un-sub from the list(s) that I am receiving dupes from. I then wait
for about thirty minutes and then sub to re-join the list(s).

I have used this procedure on several occasions and, so far, it has
always worked for me. Don't ask me why - it just does.
Hope this helps. (Mark, does this mean that I will escape a flogging?).

Best regards,
Iain Rogers, Hong Kong, China
