If you'd bothered to do a little investigating, you probably would have
discovered what I did - that neither Nick Jackiw nor his mailer appear to
be at fault.  He was just unlucky enough to have posted the original article.
A machine upstream from his appears to have caused the duplicates.  I've
sent a note containing the pertinent information to the postmaster of the
machine in question.

But obviously not seriously enough to have actually made any attempt to
solve the problem.
