Are you talking about disabling the detection of duplicate messages? That seems like a seriously bad idea. I personally see a number of my own messages regurgitated every so often by various people's broken Microsloth-hatched excuses for MTAs, and I would not like to see those dups dumped into the mailing list again (for one thing, it only takes a small amount more MTA breakage to turn that into a self-feeding flood). regards, tom lane
