Whenever an email on my email server is processed by procmail, the first thing 
that happens is that it is put in a 'backup' directory before any processing 
at all is done on it.  Therefore, the backup contains anything (spam included) 
and everything that comes in.

I just checked on the email I mentioned above, sent from my wife, and I can 
only find ONE copy of that email in the backup.   Therefore, it would appear 
that any duplication took place between the time that procmail received the 
email and it ended up in Kmail.
