[GNC] Duplicate emails in GnuCash Digests

I remember the duplicate email reception thread, but that didn't talk
about the archives and seemed to be an issue with their mailer agent not
filtering out the list vs. direct message (which should have the same
message IDs).  In this case, the issue would be on code alone.  I don't
see how code would self-duplicate the inbound messages.  When I get a bit
more time I will go look at the logs and match them up to the digest
entries to try to see what's up.  My initial guess is that they are being
sent to the list twice....  But I have no data or proof to back that up.
