(-: does your tosser toss them into your badmessages or dupes area OR does it toss them into the echo they are supposed to be in? if your tosser tosses them into your badmessages or dupes area, then it has caught them as a duplicate... otherwise, it has missed that they are a dupe (unless your tosser has a setting to keep them in the original echo)... in most cases, the system ""above"" you that sends the dupes to you should catch them... it may not be able to do so if its dupe database gets flushed of dupe data real quickly because of the amount of traffic it handles... that's if that system even has dupe detection enabled... they may not have it enabled if they elect to send all mail on to their connections and let them determine if it is a dupe or not... they may decide to do that so as to avoid false positives being stopped and not propogating... )\/(ark Always Mount a Scratch Monkey Do you manage your own servers?
