I find that I can reply to a message ("original" message, if you will) without doing anything to the reply message (the "copy" of the original message, if you will). If I then submit it, it gets saved as a new message, identical to the one I replied to.
I read through the options at the end of the docs. I did not see anything about a way to suppress identical messages, or a way to force the user to make some kind of change to make the reply different from the original.

I've seen exact;y this effect, even though I have branching = 0 in my config file - so ordinarily no chance to have two
replies to an entry. My pointer aka mouse (I'm on Linux) is a bit dodgy, and sometimes disconnects/reconnects, so in effect gives a very fast double click. I've always assumed that was the cause of the problem. The two replies have incremental IDs, and both those IDs are listed in the "Reply to" header section of the entry. I'm not sure how this overcomes the branching = 0 detail, though.
That is what I have assumed, but if others see this on occasion, perhaps it's got a different cause.

Periodically (rarely) on manually adding a record into Elog it generates a duplicate record with its own incremented ID and I don't know why. I just delete the duplicate in the meantime but would like to know if anyone else has seen this and whether their is a answer/fix for it. Thanks.
