Agreed. So far however, this has not been an issue as the duplication
(multiplication) has occurred on only one recipient's outbound message
(per incident), not on an incoming post. I don't know what would happen
to a message with multiple recipients, but my Mailman is configured to
send VERP like messages, so it sends with one recipient per SMTP
transaction to Postfix.
