Happened here as well. As suggested elsethread likely a glitch at

Almost certainly. I use Thunderbird and use E-S (unfiltered) and it got
all the repeats, and Solani (lots of filters and what I normally read)
where no extras turned up.

Sounds like the consensus is an E-S screwup. Not the first;
won't be the last. FWIW, all the filters worked; everything
in the repost list was a normal "allow". But that's local
via Agent, not through E-S.

Thanks, all.
