Tell the users that when they receive duplicates, they need to send
copies of both messages including all headers to you - preferably
forwarded as attachments, but any way that preserves all the headers
is OK.

Then you have to examine all the headers of both messages to determine
where they diverge. The oldest Received: headers (the ones furthest
from the top) and headers like Message-ID: and Date: should be the
same, but at some point, the newer Received: headers will differ. This
is where the duplication occurred.
