[List] Repeat posts? Re: Well, too interesting to drop all of the posts in this thread...

Just saw two repeats of Oerjan's last posts on this subject, in reply to Tony
and Indy. If it's just Oerjan making sure something got through he hadn't seen
out of the server back to himself, understood, but the repeats seem to have
picked up about an extra 4.5K of bulk, if that's interesting to the list
master.

While I kvetch, we're seeing quite a bit of repeat points in posts; given the
lag that can happen within threads, if you reply to each post individually,
even if they make the same point, it starts looking like a ponzi scheme.

DO NOT STOP POSTING OR MAKING POINTS! However, occasionally, try to group
replies, snip extra verbage, and try to keep sheer volume down. And don't
forget to correct subjects on occasion when thread drift happens. We've
already had people admit so snowed by e-mail volume they are 'tossing
babies with bath water'.

Some sort of email program or server hiccup, it seems - I only have one
copy of that post in my outbox, so I'm fairly certain that I didn't
intentionally send it twice :-/

Later,
