Is anyone else seeing duplicate messages every once in a while? I got two from
Jay (about the IBM terminal) spaced 55 minutes apart but with otherwise
identical content. I think there was a pair like this yesterday from someone,
and two or three pairs last week.
Looking at the headers of these latest two, there are differences in timing,
and one of them references 'billy.ezwind.net' in connection with some
Spam-Assassin lines, whereas the other doesn't.
Yeah, I know this is really an off-list admin thing - I was just curious
whether others had seen it happen too.
(Jay, if it's useful and might be something happening at your end, I can try
and save any more I see like this and see if there's any pattern to which ones
it happens with... prod me off-list if needs be)
cheers

Yeah, i got 2 today (both from Jay) that were identical. Not sure whether they arrived
together or not.

Ahh, not just me then (Richard just prodded me off-list too). Glitch in the
matrix or something. It's not a big deal, I was just wondering whether I
should be starting to worry about the integrity of my mail store - seems like
the problem's somewhere upstream though.
Are you not posting via the Dreamcast* any more by the way? (either that or
Thunderbird's decided not to do strange things with font rendering for your
messages any more! :-)
* It was a Dreamcast, wasn't it? Definitely something a little
"unconventional", anyway!

I used to post using my Dreamcast until around Jan/Feb this year. The SSL certificate on
the browser software expired and I was forced into getting a laptop (which turned into a
good move after my A600's went down, as I am now emulating my Amiga's and
archiving the AMOS-LIST Yahoo! group messages (all 8300!) on my harddrive before tidying
them up and uploading them to Aminet), since the Dreamcast didn't have a harddrive :(
It has an extension socket round the back, but nothing ever used it to my knowledge - I
even have the Karaoke unit that was released in Japan and sits under the DC, but it
doesn't use the extension socket.
Better stop yapping about it, as it's only 8 years old (Japanese release in 1999,
IIRC) and ergo off topic for now.
