Which program saves the second copy? How? > To which backend is it saved? Sorry about the lack of clarity: The two posts I mentioned were posted with different applications but they were retrieved by fetchmail and sorted/saved by gnus in nnml backend. So the same applications handled them on the incoming side. And gnus was the only application involved in splitting and saving to nnml groups. Regenerating the data base in my ding group cleaned it up. But still curious why that would happen, since as mentioned, gnus was the only app involved in saving. I've posted this with mutt to see if gnus will show the header differently again when I download the message resent by ding list and incorporate it into my gnus setup. (with gnus)
