I've been using 128000 for some time, as this sort of problem has arisen in the past. The overhead looks negligible. Also, it seems like long message-id's sometimes get munged at lne.com just enough to fool formail. Any thoughts? Thanks, -Brian On Fri, 27 Jul 2001, Eric Murray wrote:

I suspect that the massive increase in traffic has caused one or more CDRs to overflow their procmail msgid cache. I have been using formail -D 12800 msgid.cache (cache size = 1280). Should we raise that?

And, following up my own post: The next two messages I read were from Eugene Leitl, who is someone that I see duplicates from on every post. His Message-Ids were technically the same, but they are long, and someone's server is splitting them into two lines: Message-Id: <Pine.SOL.4.33.0107271859290.18600-100000@sun1.lrz-muenchen.de> Message-Id: <Pine.SOL.4.33.0107271859290.18600-100000@sun1.lrz-muenchen. de> I think formail should be concatenating the lines before making the check, but I see that it has a -c option that may help. -Bill On Sat, Jul 28, 2001 at 10:07:36AM -0500, Bill O'Hanlon wrote:

I see duplicates from certain people very consistently. I've suspected that they address their mail to multiple CDRs and are getting unique Message-IDs for each, but I've never checked into it.
