One thing that can cause duplicates is an SMTP session between servers that
aborts. The sending server sends the message but the receiving server for
some reason never acknowledges and the connection times out. The sending
server needs to assume the message wasn't received and sends it again.
Generally, the sending server will wait a few minutes before trying again.
