possbly there's more to this. i get all responding messages to the list
(and only the messages responding to my messages) twice, one time from
the 'author' and another time from the listserv. possibly your listserv
is strangely configured and remarking the original author's address in
the reply-to list so that responding messages are sent to both listserv
and the original author.
