From 3a258ad5cdd98c5705af6c02ba91993b3d382adc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Barry Warsaw Date: Wed, 5 Dec 2007 17:23:41 -0500 Subject: Because the admin directory is no longer included, the www directory isn't either, and that's where the generated docs used to live. So now, make this directory include the generated docs, removing the old IPC7 and LISA-98 directories, and the .tex source files. These latter are moved to the admin repository. --- doc/mailman-member/node21.html | 143 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 143 insertions(+) create mode 100644 doc/mailman-member/node21.html (limited to 'doc/mailman-member/node21.html') diff --git a/doc/mailman-member/node21.html b/doc/mailman-member/node21.html new file mode 100644 index 00000000..99055444 --- /dev/null +++ b/doc/mailman-member/node21.html @@ -0,0 +1,143 @@ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +7.2 How can I avoid getting duplicate messages?

+7.2 How can I avoid getting duplicate messages? (duplicates option) + +

+ +

+Mailman can't completely stop you from getting duplicate messages, but it +can help. One common reason people get multiple copies of a mail is that +the sender has used a "group reply" function to send mail to both the list and +some number of individuals. If you want to avoid getting these messages, +Mailman can be set to check and see if you are in the To: or +CC: lines of the message. If your address appears there, +then Mailman can be told not to deliver another copy to you. + +

+To turn this on or off using the web interface: + +

    +
  1. Log in to your member options page. (See Section 3.1 + for more details on how to do this.) +
  2. +
  3. Scroll down to the bottom of the page to the section marked + "Avoid duplicate copies of messages?" and change the value accordingly. +
  4. +
+ +

+This can also be changed for multiple lists at the same time if you are subscribed to +more than one list on the same domain. See Section 10.1 for +information about changing settings globally. + +

+To turn this on or off using the email interface: + +

    +
  1. Send a mail to with the command + set duplicates on or set duplicates off. + +

    +Commands can appear + in either the body or the subject of the message. (See + Section 3.2 for more information about sending mail + commands.) +

  2. +
  3. Set it to "on" to receive list copies of messages already sent + to you, set it to "off" to avoid receiving these duplicates. +
