Ben, I'm also a _very_ happy Mac User (my wife and friends are already tired of my "what a wonderful piece of hardware" comments) ;)
Many people uses a free webmail service for mailing lists and other "non-work" stuff. Many because corporate policies doesn't allow them to use their corporate email for personal stuff (not my case) or, like me, use gmail for mailing lists, so they don't get into my way unless I explicitly wants to do so. Of course we are talking about a "minor" issue here. It won't make my life impossible doing 2 clicks instead of one (just a tiny little simpler). Regards, Alejandro.

Alejandro, Unless the maillist is being very dumb it will maintain the same message id for the email it sends out as came in. Thus it will be de- duplicated by your mail server , so there will be no hitting of the user with the same message twice. Did you get my message twice? if not then the de-duping is working fine :-) Ok I admit that there will be additional bandwidth used between kannel.org's servers and your ISP servers. But only if you are the only user at your ISP subscribed the email list (as again unless its really dumb, it will batch all deliveries to the same email server in the one delivery. Fair enough if your email client does not make it readily accessible. I have the luxury of being a mac user, and Apple are very good at user interfaces and making them easy to use.
