Many copies of a 5 MB message have apparently been timing out in 
sourceware's spam processing, resulting in sourceware repeatedly accepting 
the message while the sender's mail server also times out (sooner) and 
keeps resending it.

https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2018-01/msg00901.html

(the list archives uniquify based on message-id, but many separate copies 
have been delivered to libc-alpha so far each with its own ezmlm sequence 
number).
