Speaking of "duplicates", I've got a recurring dup problem with a regular

get two copies delivered. I'm catching all other dups with my recipe(s).


I'm with Sean: I suspect there's a c-flag recipe somewhere to blame.

But, out of scanning hundreds of other messages, why just this one sender?
Am catching all other dups.

I was using this simple recipe for months, then switched to others in
attempt to resolve the "special" problem. As noted, no "c flag" which would
make of all dups found:

##:0 Wh: $MESG_ID.lock
##| $FORMAIL -D 16384 $MESG_ID


I'm now using this one - purposely sending a copy to $DUPS to see them:

MID_CACHE_LEN = 8192
MID_CACHE_FILE = msgid.cache
MID_CACHE_LOCK = msgid.cache$LOCKEXT
LOCKFILE = $MID_CACHE_LOCK
MESSAGEID = `$FORMAIL -xMessage-ID:`
FROM = `$FORMAIL -xFrom:`
:0
* ^Message-ID:
* ? $FORMAIL -D $MID_CACHE_LEN $MID_CACHE_FILE
{
        LOG = "dupecheck: discarded $MESSAGEID from $FROM $NL"

        :0      # no lockfile !
        $DUPS
}
LOCKFILE # kill variable
