I recently had a problem pop up with sending out digests. Some of my mailing list users receive multiple copies of the same digest. I have not had this problem before now. Does anyone know what causes this? Can I reset something to stop it and then start it back up? Thanks!

I've been getting the following error message every time I send a message to a list. A number of other users have commented that they are getting the same message when they send a message to the list. The message subject is "Undelivered Mail Returned to Sender".
-- error message -- This is the Postfix program at host mail.otherwhen.com.

I looked, and the list is not subscribed to itself. And the messages in question are delivered to the list.
System description - AMD K6-3, 450mhz, 128 megs of ram, FreeBSD 4.3, Postfix 2.??, and Mailman 2.06.
I'm pretty sure this isn't a Postfix issue, and I am confused.
Does anyone have any ideas what might be causing this?
Thanks, Mike

Well, that got resolved. Someone had misconfigured
their copy of Lookout! and was sending every message
they received back to the list as a return receipt.
Lookout! hadn't changed the headers, so it looked like
the original sender was re-posting the message. Postfix
stopped the duplicate message and sent the confusing
error message.
Looking at the Postfix log, and a raw view of the error message showed me which SMTP server the message was coming through. I used the find_member command and lucked out - only one (former) subscriber from that domain.
