Thanks for your response Dennis but I think I must be suffering from a
different problem than yourself. I have no duplicates and no dodgy
characters lurking in my subscribers list.
Can nobody suggest an approach to tracking down this problem? My perl is
certainly up to hacking the majordomo source but I'm a bit of a beginner
when it comes to mail protocols and the ilk so I'm not sure what I should
be looking for.
