The specific email that you mentioned is at https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2022/12/msg00262.html and shouldn't cause any trouble. But it does quote a couple of header fields from an earlier post, and that may be a clue to your underlying problem, but not to its immediate cause. I suggest you read the thread (about a dozen posts) starting at https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2022/12/msg00250.html and particularly messages #252 and #269. These discuss a /possible/ cause of your reported symptoms—you've quoted the topic of the thread at the top of your post. You need to determine whether "getting multiple messages" means that you are seeing multiple displays of the same message, or the display of local duplicates of one or two messages, or actual newly arriving copies of these same messages. Knowing which of these is occurring will help trace the source. I think it's an unlikely coincidence that these messages (particularly if the duplicates are all in the set 252/262/269) would just happen to be the ones causing a random Tbird duplication bug to trigger. The problem could lie further up the chain of processes that deliver the emails. BTW are you running any filters, like procmail etc? Cheers, David.
