Hi Mark,

It's a catch 22 then.

Lee Green has done what he can to remove dupes but they are still coming
through.

Even if we know why these dupoes are getting through, it is highly unlikely
that PXW will be updated in the near future so we have to live with the
occasional dupe now that the fidoweb system is in place to as you said we
ensure all mail gets through.

Only other choice is to ask 1:218/700 if he can do anything

 ml> that system /may/ kill dupes or it may pass them on to their links...
 ml> it is up to the links to eliminate dupes on import into their message
 ml> bases...

 ml> i'm of two minds as to whether distributors should filter out dupes or
 ml> pass them on... my own backbone hub system is configured to pass them
