Hi Paul,
Still having trouble I see. Let's look at your resend alias first, and
compare it to settings in your internetpublishing.config file.
1. -p == precedence = bulk (redundant, .config overrides anyway)
2. -R == purge_received = yes (redundant, .config defaults to no)
3. -l internetpublishing == (this one is required, no special comment)
4. -f == sender = owner-internetpublishing (redundant)
5. -h == resend_host = (useful only if you are doing virtual hosting)
6. -s == administrivia = yes (redundant, default)
7. missing comma between outgoing and archive delivery addresses
7a. I would not put the archive alias on this line anyway, it is better
suited to be put on the same line with your outgoing :include: file.
Speaking of an :include: file, have you considered commenting out your
outgoing alias using bulk_mailer, and reverting to a standard :include:?
If the membership is less than 1000, you may want to consider this, at
least as a test.
If you were getting duplicates "every" time, I would also question your
-owner alias of intlist. Where does intlist expand to?
Your archive alias is interesting that you have chosen a daily archive
with only a 2 digit year in the suffix of the filename.
