Hm. Interesting idea.
Answer is, no, I don't think so. But if Paul read your message, it's
probably already done. The script would just set a variable with a list of
the E-mail addresses being used for each recipient, and then look for
duplicates. Shouldn't be too hard. I wouldn't match on actual names, since
often I have people who want to receive two copies of mail at different
addresses (e.g., work and home). If Paul does not get to it, I'll put it on
my back burner...
