Stop assuming things just because they are not happening to you.  MJB posted
this message to the TR list, which is also experiencing the duplicate
syndrome (more like 10 of each post rather than just doubles):

:Yes, I know there are some troubles with the list.  I may have at least
:slowed down the dupes, if not fixed the problem.  I'll look at it more
later
:tonight.  I'd thought that today was going to be spent down at the shop
getting
:ready for the BMCU Tinker Day coming up saturday morning.  If you are in
Salt
:Lake City, stop on by!
:
:Actually, this is a good chance to give advance notice about a nice, long
:message I'll be sending out soon to all the lists, concerning the future of
:the Team.Net services.  Stay tuned!
:
:mjb."

He definitely did slow the duplicates down right after that was posted, and
then in the last 24 hours the problem erupted again.

The same way in which one gets "dropped" from the list occasionally.  It
seems to be an issue in the way in order in which each of us is subscribed.
Or rather the number in which we receive the list.  Remember each time you
unsubscribe and then resubscribe you are placed at the END of the order.

Just because one does not see the problem, does not mean the problem does
not exist.
