I do too. But the list echo never comes back TO THAT ADDRESS@SERVER. So you must maintain the sub to the other address or on a 2nd server. Most just turn off delivery back to the server they post thru. Mailfilters duplicate nuking doesn't prevent the duplicates in the two server or 2 addresses situation, each with the same message coming back in, which may, or more likely is not the case during that invocation. I've has as much as a 16 hour difference in incoming duplicates doing that. The best solution was to stop using gmail. And its like an Excedrin headache in that you've just removed the need for the headache powders. So I miss it like I'd miss a broken leg, or a poke in the eye with a sharp stick. :) > No hassle and works > fine. Others may have other simple ways of dealing with it. For you maybe, but gmail has always been a broken solution in search of a problem to me. So it was just a shrug when they started denying my fetchmail access to port 995 a year ago. Problem solved by 6 # characters in the .fetchmailrc file. > Lisi Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
