Thanks, but I know that and that side of things is working OK. It isn't the forum that's getting the duplicates it's the mailing list. In other words, it's exporting, not importing that's the problem.

Most of my traffic originates as traffic to the mailing list. This sends a copy to the forum, which posts it. If a message originates on the forum, it sends a copy to the list, the list sends it back and it is recognised as a duplicate. So far, so good.

But until a week or so ago, a message sent from the list to the forum was posted to the forum but NOT sent back to the list. In other words, the software knew not to return posts originating from the lists.

Suddenly, it has started doing so (after three years of working perfectly) and I don't have a clue why.

The messages are collected from the forum incoming mailbox by getlists.php as a cron job.

If it helps, I can post a copy of both an original message and the copy sent back by the forum.
