Description

Lists.a.o has dozens of duplicate copies of emails.
(I counted about 80)
It looks like the copies were generated internally by the list.a.o hosting service.

A sample:

and

Both of these have:

Return-Path: <security-return-130220-archive-asf-private=[e-mail]>

Here are the display versions:

I'm not sure that anything can be done about such duplicates as removal will mean loss of permalinks.

[I've not checked any other mailing lists.]

However it would be good to make sure that this behaviour does not recur with other lists.
