Exactly! I would have expected that someone in this business would be
able to determine this by how a list server works. The list server
simply wouldn't know how to send out such a large number of emails
AGAIN. And certainly not to just one single user.

That's why I already asked why kind of email client he's using. It's
a bad habit these times that people for example are more and more
using web browsers instead of real email programs, with all the
related issues...
