Hi Folks,

Someone just asked me if I could set up a group of 7 lists for them, with an interesting property: the lists have overlapping membership, and they'd like to set things up so that a message sent to multiple lists doesn't show up multiple times, if someone is on more than one of the lists. (Think sports teams - a parent has kids on more than one team - an announcement about field use goes out to parents of kids on 3 of the teams.)

To be more concrete:
- 7 lists, a-g
- John is on lists a, c, e
- a message is sent to lists a, b, c
- is there a way to set things up so John only gets one copy, instead of 2?

Any thoughts?

Thanks much,

Miles
