Dear Ex-Ascot
I thoroughly enjoy your emails, but I don't need to receive them 23 times!
Once is enough ..............
Re: Once is enough ..............
That's usually a dodgy link - sending end has stuffed the whole thing into the ether, it's received by the other end and then the connection dies before the acknowledgement gets back to the sender, so the receiver has a complete message but the sender doesn't know it and so tries again. Look at the headers, see if they've all got the same message ID. I think my system is smart enough to recognise duplicates and eat them but it probably depends on the receiving mail service.
Re: Once is enough ..............
I'm assuming that the problem is at the sender's end. Maybe the wind is blowing the smoke signals back to them, or the signal can't get through the JB noise due to low signal to noise ratio?
None of the other emails I've received today have come in multiples, in fact this has never happened before. It's not a big problem, just thought the Ex-As should know, specially if their ISP caps their data usage.
They all have different message IDs, for example :
Message-ID: <017f01d5b992$d4d17c00$7e747400$@xxxxxx.com>
Message-ID: <00e601d5b98b$38b6bb70$aa243250$@xxxxxxx.com>
Message-ID: <008601d5b986$3deebcf0$b9cc36d0$@xxxxxx.com>

Re: Once is enough ..............
My ISP has a spam filter, I can send no more than 500 messages per day or a lower number per hour. The ISP help desk was not aware of this and I only found out from a BB expert. My webcams had defaulted to diahorrea mode send a continuous stream of alerts.
