[Mailman-Users] no dupes across lists?

Hi,

I have Three lists list1 at domain.com (1000 members) and list2 at domain.com
(1500 members) and list3 at domain.com . Now, In list3 at domain.com I have only
two members i.e. list1 at domain.com and list2 at domain.com.

If I send any message to list3 at domain.com it goes to all the members of
list1 and list2 but the members who are in both list1 and list2 gets
duplicate copies. How to prevent that? I don't want to send duplicate
messages.


Please advise.

Regards,
Vinita Aggarwal

This is definitely a gmail 'feature' to the extent that you won't see
your own list posts because they are 'duplicates' of the sent message.
