You know, with 100% certainty, that a lot of messages to non-existent addresses are spam. So, all messages with same message ID, sent to real and non-existent addresses can be deleted with impunity. You won't be accidentally deleting real messages misidentified as spam (real messages don't get sent to masses of wrong addresses). -- Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored. I read messages from the public lists.
