[net.news.b] Addendum to article on duplicate articles

sdo (09/03/82)

Please allow me to clarify my last article about receiving duplicate
articles from a single system.  I didn't mean articles with identical
contents, nor do I mean the same article in multiple newsgroups.
I mean articles with the same ID coming from the same system.

The way you know you are receiving dups is to keep a log file and look
for messages like "Duplicate article foosys.999 rejected" .
We never actually see the dups because they are rejected properly,
but the system that sent them to us must have rejected them also so why
do we get them?
