Marc,

But ... if he "re-submitted" the same article a second time, then most likely it got rejected for exactly the right reason: it was a duplicate posting. Why didn't you approve the one that actually *was* in the moderation queue? :(

Actually, that's a buggy filter. It really should not be filtering out "duplicate" messages with timestamps hours apart. The post-bounce-subscribe-repost cycle happens *all the time* and that filter makes a subscriber wait for me to get to them in the hold queue (which sometimes I don't, due to 100+ spams per list per day) even though they resoved the "problem" themselves.

So please correct that filter so that it behaves intelligently.  Thanks!
