Ok.  I am really confused now.  I can't see what is going on here.

Here is what just his thread looks like to me now:
   6  s  12/02 mdevin@ozemail. (1.5K) Is everyone else seeing duplicates?

All the emails from you (I checked) are the same. (ie. 7,11,12,13).

What seems to be happening is that progressively more and more copies of
the same messages are arriving to my email address.  I checked on the
ISP also (prior to downloading them with fetchmail) and there seemed to
be copies there also (it is a bit harder to tell as I have no sorting
and threading).

The possibilities I can think of are:

1.  I am subscribed to the list several times with the same email
address.  ??? Is this possible?  I did have to re-subscribe recently
after a problem with my postfix config which resulted in me bouncing
mail back to debian-user-list and the list manager booted me off.

2.  I have stuffed something in postfix config.

Here is my postfix main.cf:
------------- snip ------------------------
# Other configurable parameters.
myhostname = beast.home
mydomain = home
myorigin = home
# Address Rewriting
# Rewrite "user" to "user@$myorigin"
append_at_myorigin = yes
# Do not rewrite "user@host" to "user@host.$mydomain"
append_dot_mydomain = no
alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases
alias_database = hash:/etc/aliases
mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8
mydestination = localhost $myhostname localhost.$mydomain $mydomain
sender_canonical_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/sender_canonical
mailbox_command = /usr/bin/procmail
home_mailbox = mail/
--------------------------------------------
Here is my .fetchmailrc file:
------------- snip -------------------------
set postmaster "mark"
set no bouncemail
set syslog              # loging of errors etc.
set daemon 900          # puts it in background, polls every 900secs (15mins)
poll pop.ozemail.com.au with proto POP3
    user 'mdevin' there with password 'xxxxxxxxx' is mark here
    warnings 3600 antispam 571 550 501 554
--------------------------------------------

Can anyone see any problems with these?

How can I tell if I am subscribed more than once?  If this is possible?

This is really starting to give me lots of mail!

Thanks for any ideas.
Mark.
