I am very glad the list is not being spammed. Now to figure out why I am
getting half a dozen incomplete emails and three or so complete emails of each
one I send to the list. Only mail to the list is affected. But it is likely an

Hello list,
I am using debian wheezy 7.1 stable, 64 bit and was previously using
google-chrome. But whenever I opened a new tab on chrome debian used to
freeze, (or I should say X used to freeze). I didn't had much time to
debug, so I removed it and switched to iceweasel which came with
debian.
