Thanks Warren; I'm posting my answer to the list since it could be of use to others: I have had that one too. 1) Sometimes it is legitimate, either I used an exact subject line to someone else's post, or I accidentally hit send twice 2) sometimes a mailer in the middle looses the connection and sends it twice 3) IF I restart the listserv service just as you send one in, it can burp and read it twice. as it happens I did that yesterday afternoon, but not last night .... Dan

That is, a message with identical text (but possibly with different mail headers) has been posted to the list recently, either by you or by someone else. If you have reason to resend this message to the list (for instance because you have been notified of a hardware failure with loss of data), please alter the text of the message in some way and resend it to the list. Note that altering the "Subject:" line or adding blank lines at the top or bottom of the message is not sufficient; you should instead add a sentence or two at the top explaining why you are resending the message, so that the other subscribers understand why they are getting two copies of the same message. _______________________________________________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org attend wwrug10 www.wwrug.com ARSlist: "Where the Answers Are"
