Hmmm,

having a rummage round my logs whilst I upgrade to
the latest release,  I notice that MailScanner appears
to scan mails twice,  heres an extract:

This is confirmed by the message id matching up on both occassions.  I admin
it seems a tad odd and could well be playing havoc with my stats.

Thoughts, comments - are as always welcome.

Cheers
