- This may be a problem in just our local implementation, but on the
- chance that somebody here has seen this problem...
-
- People getting mail sent to a mailing list will often get a single
- piece of mail with the contents repeated twice in concatination.
- Both some of the headers and the full body of the message will appear
- twice. Occasionally there will be differences in the header
- information.
-
- For example the upper version of the mail will have a header like
-
- From: dween@mtgzfs3.att.com (Rich Pennenga)
-
- and the lower version will have the header appearing as
-
- From: mtgzfs3.att.com!dween (Rich Pennenga)
-
- It looks like somewhere there is some header processing going on and
- the processed verion gets appended to the beginning of the message
- rather than replaceing it altogether. In the examples I have seen
- where headers are different, the more processed version appears in the
- upper half of the mail. Any ideas, anyone? Have you seen this before
- or have some idea how we might have done this to ourselves?
-
- Thanks you.
