I didn't check the archives, but it's absolutely gmail that's repeating. I
checked the headers:

As you see from the timestamps, 10.141.198.9 received the post only once,
but is trying repeatedly to hand it off to the outward-facing system
rv-out-0708.google.com. This system forwards it to the list successfully each
time, but 10.141.198.9 doesn't realise that rv-out-0708 had accepted it, so it
retried later, where the same thing happened again.
Anyway, all seems to have quietened down today.
cheers,
DaveK
