does your tosser toss them into your badmessages or dupes area OR does it
toss them into the echo they are supposed to be in?

if your tosser tosses them into your badmessages or dupes area, then it has
caught them as a duplicate... otherwise, it has missed that they are a dupe
(unless your tosser has a setting to keep them in the original echo)...

in most cases, the system ""above"" you that sends the
dupes to you should catch them... it may not be able to do so if its dupe
database gets flushed of dupe data real quickly because of the amount of
traffic it handles... that's if that system even has dupe detection
enabled... they may not have it enabled if they elect to send all mail on
to their connections and let them determine if it is a dupe or not... they
may decide to do that so as to avoid false positives being stopped and not
propogating...
