I've been trying to set up a mail/news gateway on a Linux machine
running inn (2.2.3), majordomo (1.94.5), mail2news and news2mail from
newsgate (1.18 I think). News posted to 'iris.test' should be sent to
the mailing list 'test' and 'test-digest', and mail sent to 'test'
should
be posted to 'iris.test'.
Everything gets where it should, but I'm getting duplicate mail msgs
and bounces generated in spite of using '-x internet' with mail2news.
I've read all I can find on avoiding duplicates but so far nothing works
and I need ideas.
I've put mail2news and news2mail in the majordomo directory and am
running
them with the majordomo wrapper but I don't think that makes any
difference
as there don't seem to be permission problems..
Part of a returned mail report:

I'd really appreciate some suggestions here and I can provide more
information if need be. Thanks in advance.
