I've thought about this more and decided that it isn't that hard.
Basically, upon a successful "redirect", add an entry into the duplicate
delivery database indicating that message X was redirected to location Y,
and so all subsequent attempts should succeed without actually redirecting.
If you could file a bugzilla bug on this (http://bugzilla.andrew.cmu.edu/),
I'd appreciate it.
Patches of course always accepted. :^)
