Jon Hamilton once stated:

=It's not clear that the "once only" part is universally desirable.  It
=may be a good default, but there are no doubt people out there who will
=want one copy for each list.   You're trying to solve a social behavior
=problem with technology, and are doomed to fail (or at least to have less
=than 100% success).

Those people can then apply their own technology and replicate messages
locally, I think. There is no technical nor human reason/justification 
for the identical messages to be sent to the person more then once.

Yes, next time, I'll suggest one message-ID per host :-)
