Actually tripled. This one from Joe Hill. Partial headers follow fyi:

1st:
Received: by lethe.ss.org (Postfix, from userid 54)
        id 01E6C6D372; Thu, 16 Oct 2003 16:36:47 -0400 (EDT)
2nd:
Received: by lethe.ss.org (Postfix, from userid 54)
        id E48B973E7; Thu, 16 Oct 2003 16:40:07 -0400 (EDT)
3rd:
Received: by lethe.ss.org (Postfix, from userid 54)
        id DD6FD6D384; Thu, 16 Oct 2003 16:45:11 -0400 (EDT)

The rest of the message is identical. lethe.ss.org is the input of the
list system so lethe cannot be at fault. Something or someone is echoing
mail in triplicate on the internet.

I do not understand how a message sent by tcp/ip can be triplicated. lethe
cleverly hides the sender ip so it is not possible to make it out.
