My double-posts [was: very large revision file - very small amount of data]

Sorry about my re-posts. It's happened a few times now. Sometimes my
mail client (Evolution) doesn't remove a post from the "out" box after
posting it, and next time I start it up it sends it again if I don't
delete it first.
