I have not found this a problem. I haven't noticed *myself* sending dups to the/any list using the "list reply" function "L". You undoubtedly have something in ~/.muttrc. W/o seeing your .muttrc, I can only suggest saving your present .muttrc to another name and making a new minimal .muttrc to use for testing. Set a fictitious mailing list in .muttrc with an address you control and use it for testing. Add sections of your original .muttrc between tests until you notice dups occuring. If you have recorded or can identify the list[s] where the dups occur, look in your .muttrc for similarities to those list posting addrs. Playing with them could minimize the effort necessary. gud luk, -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA HOG # US1244711 http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net
