Thanks for the reply. Yes I think you summed it up; I figured that it
was behaving properly. In short it's that I have the email that I sent
sitting wherever it was Fcc'ed and then shortly thereafter I receive
from the email list a message with the same ID. Since the Fcc'ed one was
already added to the database, the one that I received from the list
just sits there. But I guess others using mailing lists have encountered
this too, so I was asking how they handle it since I haven't figured it
out yet.
I'll give that command a try to see if I can put it to good use somehow.
