Gettting multiple logwatch mails

Hi Guys...

I have a problem of getting multiple LogWatch mails from my box. I have a cron setup to send me (and some other users) Logwatch report mail form our server. I end up getting multiple mails from all the boxes (other users have not complained of this). I cannot figure out why. I have checked the mailllog and it shows only 1 mail being transmitted. I also checked the cron files (did not find any)... and it also has only 1 cron for Logwatch.

Can someone please advice on the reason I am getting these multiple mails?

I am running the server on RH Linux 8.0 and 7.3. ON the client side I am using MS Outlook 2000 (on Windows 98) to down load the mails.

Thanks all...

KS

NAME
mlmmj-maintd - maintenance for mlmmj maintained lists SYNOPSIS
mlmmj-maintd [-F] [-d | -L] /path/to/dir -d: Full path to directory with lists -L: Full path to list directory -F: Don't fork, performing one maintenance run only. DESCRIPTION
This is the program doing the maintenance for an mlmmj based mailing list. It will unsubscribe people who have bounced for long enough, send out bounce probes, resend mails that couldn't be delivered to relayhost, clean out stale requests for e.g. subscription, resend list mails and clean up leftover files etc. If a directory containing several lists exists, the -d can be used to specify this, making mlmmj-maintd perform a maintenance run in every listdir below the specified one. Only either -d or -L can be specified at the same time. It will run as a daemon, unless the -F switch is specified, in which case it just runs once. The -F option should be used when one wants to avoid running another daemon, and use e.g. cron to control it instead. In case cron is used, mlmmj-maintd should be run every 2 hours or so. An example crontab entry: 0 */2 * * * /usr/bin/mlmmj-maintd -F -L /path/to/list AUTHORS
