When a message is addressed to us@example.com and ali@example.com, where "user" is a member of "alias", the user will receive two copies of the message. I'm guessing that this is because SubmitFile::ChkRecipient is run before alias expansion. Is that so? If so, how difficult would it be to reorder the execution path, so that alias expansion is done before duplicate checking when building the recipient list?

I'm still trying to figure this one out... The Mail Queue documentation (http://www.courier-mta.org/queue.html) says:

The submit module ... Run all recipient addresses through the system's alias database. Remove duplicate addresses from the recipient list.

However, when I send a message to a user and to an alias for that user, the user will receive two messages. Clearly, submit is not doing what it is supposed to. Where should I start looking for the problem?
