[Xitami] Excessive messages

This makes since, except that my mail service is receiving multiple copies.
Yahoo Mail is getting loads of messages, then outlook downloads them. This
means that it is not with outlook, but with yahoo and the listserv. I will
try unsubscribing and re subscribing.

Thanks,

I'm not receiving multiples copies.
It could be a faulty connection between your mail client and the POP-3
server causing the mail to be downloaded multiples times.
A typical POP-3 session involves the download of the messages on the server
and as last step the deletion of the messages on the server when all mesages
are downloaded successfully.

Check your mail client to see if it has a setting "dedupe messages".
Check also that the setting "leave mail on server" is OFF

If it still occurs, unsubscribe and subscribe again to the list. Maybe this
will help.
