Re: [hylafax-users] OT - Repeat emails



This is often due to people posting to the list before subscribing which
sends the post to a moderator (necessary anti-spam measure). They don't read
the reply, which says their post will eventually be sent, and just subscribe
and post again. Sometimes they repeat this several times until they
subscribe with the right email address to allow their posts to go through
unmoderated.

When the moderator approves the post later, you end up getting multiple,
identical postings.

So no malfunction as far as I can tell. Just pilot error.
