Here, it looks like a broken usenet gateway; all the duplicate mail I've seen has the header X-Envelope-Sender: [EMAIL PROTECTED] As well as repeating messages that originate from the list, it looks like it's broken in other areas too, as many of the messages show up in Mutt as MIME messages with broken or missing multipart boundaries. Hopefully, someone in .hk knows who to contact to get it shut off... in the meantime, I've added this to my Exim .forward file: if $h_X-Envelope-Sender: matches "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" then seen finish endif which will hopefully mean I don't have to wade through them by hand.
