Actually as i told there were two groups i have created in my mailserver which contain a common emailid. For example
group1: user1@example.com,user2@example.com group2: user1@example.com,user3@example.com
If i am sending a mail to group1 and group2. It is going two times a single mail to the user1 mailbox. But in dovecot it is not eliminating since it has the same message-id. Previously i was able to accomplish this task with cyrus duplicate elimination.
"two times a single mail to the user1 mailbox" actually I do expect that the MTA detects the duplication of the two aliases and does NOT send the mail two times to user1.
I mean what happens if you alias like so:
group1: user1,group2 group2: user1,group1
unless the MTA removes duplicates, you've created a mail storm.
Are they "real" MTA-level aliases or are they driven by a mailing list software? Or is one recipient of groupX forwards to an external recipient, then that one forwards back to user1?
