Another possibility is that there's a procmail recipe, such as
the one in 'man procmailex', to eliminate duplicates (but you'd
probably know about that!).

I filter mail through this recipe:

 :0 Whc: msgid.lock
 | formail -D 98192 msgid.cache

 :0 a:
 duplicates

It has been working until recently. [...]


I recommend *not* using those recipes. I tried them years ago and had some problems so quit using them. There are other people who recommend not using those. I don't remember the details of the problems, but maybe someone else here will and will post about them.
