I believe it happens when people do a "Reply All" in their e-mail clients.
For instance, when I do a reply all, the
To: address is [EMAIL PROTECTED] and the cc: address is
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
If I remember, I usually try to remove the cc: address so it only goes to
recips in To: address.

Is anyone else on this list having the problem of getting multiple copies
of posts? I'm getting at least two copies of every post, sometimes as
many as six or eight. I've gotten at least six of this particular post.
It only happens with posts from this list (I subscribe to three lists)
It doesn't happen with non-list posts, either company internal or external
e-mails.
I've gotten almost 200 e-mails today, about half duplicates of posts to
this list.
Anyone else seeing this?
They say there are three signs of stress in your life. You eat too much
junk food, you drive too fast and you veg out in front of the TV. Who are
they kidding? That sounds like a perfect day to me!
