Is it just me, my Vista, server etc., but am getting duplicate posts &

Also anyone seeing these shrink type posts (Em I Fifteen prosecution. .

Hi Wendy,
The problem is almost certainly the news server you use to read these
groups. I had it happen to me a few years ago. Kind of a weird déjà vu
feeling, isn't it? For some reason the server seems to "forget" that it
has those messages already so picks them up again. It should stop pretty
soon.
I rarely get spam messages on here. I don't have anyone blocked so I
have to assume the news server I use must delete messages that are cross
posted to more than some (unknown to me) number of groups. I know they
allow at least 2 groups because I do get messages posted to here and
ABPO at the same time.
