Description

This is mainly to record that a mailing list can contain two copies of the same message. In this case, the original message was resent, but actually arrived before the original.

Neither mod_mbox not PonyMail handle this properly.
Mod_mbox only shows one of the messages, though both are stored.

PonyMail only stores one of the messages.

The duplicates are in
https://mail-search.apache.org/members/private-arch/committers/200512.mbox
Dated: Dec 12 2005

The resent message has the same Message-Id, but has a different Resent-Message-Id
