A little update on the previous question...
The problem of duplicate messages occurs when Outlook Express clients use
"reply all". If the message post was originally from me, the reply all
function generates a message to both the list and to me personally. That's
what I would expect. But why do Outlook Express clients generate two copies?
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I have a new majordomo setup.
I am running tests on a small scale before trying to go production with
it. So far, I am running into a problem in that when some of my testers
reply to the list everyone (including the poster) sees two copies of his
post. The only thing I see in common with the posters who get doubled
messages is that they are using Outlook Express as a client. Posters using
Netscape or Eudora (so far) do not see doubled messages.
Is Outlook Express' reply function broken? Is there a Majordomo hack
around it?
Thank you,
Howard
My aliases are:
# Majordomo aliases
majordomo: "|/home/majordomo/wrapper majordomo"
owner-majordomo: howard
majordomo-owner: howard
# List aliases
# Test
test: "|/home/majordomo/demime.pl '|/home/majordomo/wrapper resend -l test
test-list'"
test-list: :include:/home/majordomo/lists/test
owner-test: howard
test-owner: howard
test-request: "|/home/majordomo/wrapper majordomo -l test"
test-approval: howard
I can see in my sendmail logs that the alias "test" was the recipient of
the message twice. I can also see in the logs that the it was called twice
with the same message ID from the same sender.
