Once again a subscriber created a mail loop.  Beginning at 4:30am ET,
Saturday, October 28, messages from earlier this week began to be
re-submitted to this elist by a subscriber and hence were re-distributed
to all subscribers.

57 distinct duplicate messages were found.  If your email is
"well-connected" you will have gotten all 57.

Almost 6000 duplicate messages were removed from the queues, so some of
you were spared the duplicates.  The archives have already been cleaned
up so there aren't any duplicates there.

The offending subscriber has been removed from the elist.

Unfortunately it is difficult to protect against subscribers who do
inappropriate things, whether accidental or malicious.

Thanks to those of you who reported the duplicate messages to:
