Odd, I haven't gotten any emails from koolinus since 14
November. Maybe my WSP is filtering his/her/its stuff out??

I would be wary of simply shipping everything to /dev/null because
once the problem is fixed, you will never know it and might miss
useful emails from him/her/it.

Instead, a more general solution would be to have procmail eliminate
duplicates for you. There is a recipie to do that in the procmail
docs. To handle existing duplicates, tag on duplicate messages ("T ~="
on mutt) and delete the results.
