bugdb

BTW, we went through a patch there where bug mail wasn't doubled, but it
is once more twofold.

Cheers,

Ben.

As I posted the other day, gnats itself is the problem.  It puts a To: and
Cc: header in the same message and sends it to sendmail -t.  You need to
hack gnats to call your wrapper, and if you do that you may as well just
do what I suggested the other day in way of source changes.

qmail-inject wrapper which does dup elimination for anything which is To: 
apache-bugdb.  You should be OK doing dup elimination at this stage --
since your mailing lists never touch qmail-inject.

I would guess that the CGI uses sendmail -t, and so I'd suggest just
writing a dup-eliminating sendmail -t and use that specifically in the
CGI.  ... do it in perl with the RFC822 parsing libraries to be sure you
get it right.

Yes, my "fix" which ended the doubling-of-mail caused numerous other
problems, so I backed it out (and had to clean up the database by hand a
bit).  Other suggestions for how to fix it are welcome.
