Yeah, and I actually changed that default years ago, because the sense
of the list was that those who wanted to dupe elimination generally
preferred to do that locally via procmail or similar.[1]  It seems
that it got reenabled when Tux migrated our lists to a new host, and
now pretty much everybody has caught it. :-(

Still, over-aggressive spam filters (like feature-lacking MUAs) are a
self-inflicted injury.  Those folks with ADHD spam filters probably
have bigger problems than missing an occasional xemacs-beta post. :-(
