This is an elegant solution (better than my shadow delivery method
below). Is there a way of making sure that only one copy of a message
is stored? At present an outgoing mail to, for example, 5 people, will
result in 5 copies of the message.

shadow_delivery:
debug_print = "T: shadow_delivery"
driver = appendfile
group = mail
user = mail
mode = 0660
envelope_to_add = true
directory=/home/mailbackup
maildir_format
