ROTFLMAO.

  - Geeks all over the world are (as we write) trying to figure out
    how to implement this.  It'll be in the next version.

  - _Something_ doesn't show you new mail 'til a few days after it
    arrives ('cause you have to wait for possible duplicates to
    arrive).  Inconvenient, but for those who can't stand seeing
    duplicates (or the wrong duplicate), well worth the wait.

  - Kibo probably already has the fix implemented.

Simpler is to ignore what was done in the past.  Decide what you will
do in the future.  Now, we can all go out and hunt down and kill those
miscreants who reply to the author and cc: the list.  And you thought
there was no real reason for netiquette ...
