[Mailman-Users] no dupes across lists?

That's interesting.

I run Mailman 2.1.5 (Mac OS X 10.4) and have the 'problem' that when someone posts to two lists at a time, I get only one message. I actually do want to get both for archival purposes. If this is not a function of Mailman 2.1.5, I wonder where the other message is cut. :-)

(No need for action from anyone - I was just mumbling aloud).
