[rt-users] Multiple e-mails

It's actually postfix, and the logs just show a re-sending of the e-mail 
from the system.  Nothing suspicious, and I've been watching the queue 
(albeit only lately, and not before I found out multiple e-mails were 
being sent), and nothing seems out of the ordinary.  I'm trying to track 
down to see if it's the same Message-ID, but no luck so far.

The messages seem to be carbon copies.  The only thing that I can think 
of is that they guy wound up responding from a different e-mail address 
the second time, and the two tickets were merged -- though the copies 
both go to the same address.  As well, yesterday people were playing with 
their signatures and one guy had an e-mail he sent in be entered four 
separate times he claims -- I see three, one via the web interface and 
two via e-mail, 19 minutes apart.  Wording is exactly the same, and yes, 
there are two entries for the e-mail, plus one for the web entry.  In 
this case, the logs show:

Jul 18 14:44:30 obsidian postfix/cleanup[25997]: 3898528D: 
message-id=<rt-3-142.9.99553314021135 at Ticket>

and

Jul 18 15:05:28 obsidian postfix/cleanup[27381]: 16C93291: 
message-id=<rt-22-152.6.93878544475368 at Ticket>

as the closest matching entries that correspond with the times of the 
entries in RT.

Is it consistantly repeatable?  It's happened twice that I've been told, 
but it's not consistant.  I'll keep my eye on it tomorrow, and see if I 
can get any more details.
