I realize that it is most likely too late for Devcon 2001 but would
you
consider doing a session in 2002 about how this mail list works the
nuts and
bolts, how cf is used and stuff you have learned the hard way... etc?
I would be interested and I think other people would be too.

Not really. CFMAIL did have a few issues which is why I'm using the
CFX_iMSMail tag in conjunction with the iMS mail server now. Very
good, very
stable and very compliant. The duplicates are for one of three general
reasons:
1. The person is subscribed twice. Yes, this happens a lot more than
you
know.
2. The person has 2 or more rules for the list in their mail reader.
This
can cause the message to be duplicated locally. We'll have a small
article
on this in the next Fusion Authority alert.
3. The mail server hiccups. Post.Office does this on occasion and
will spit
out an extra post to someone. This is not a common occurrence and
usually
affects only a few people. As there are over 2000 people on this list
alone,
I think I'd hear a whole lot more when dupes are going to all. We are
moving
slowly over to iMS for all of the list functions as it is a million
times
better than post.office and post.office is basically abandonware.
As you can see, I pay rather close attention to the list performance
and
other issues with it. I want this to be the best list it can be and
one of
my small parts in it is keeping things running smoothly. Now your
part is to
participate. :)
