A subscriber was subscribed under an alias and had some forwarding
arrangement that munged the "To:" field to be the "real" address.  The
address munging didn't change the "CC:" field.

When mail was CCed to the XSL-List Digest, the post-munging mail
forwarded to the subscriber still contained the same "CC:" field, and
the XSL-List was sent another copy of the same message, which was sent
to the subscriber, etc., etc.

As it happens, the mail server on my machine deletes duplicate
messages, so I didn't know of the problem until other kind souls told
me about it.  The nominal author of the copies was temporarily
unsubscribed to break the loop, and the mail forwarder has since been
unsubscribed so it won't happen (the same way) again.
