That could be thanks to a low history-expire date with INN. If your
server has forgotten that it recieved an article the article will get
through a second (and third (and fourth (I've seen it happen three
times once))) time and you'll have to read it once again.

I guess people with a _huge_ disk would like Gnus to keep a record of
all Messages-ID's it has seen (I have a vague feeling that you can do
this with september Gnus already).
