So if you use news.aioe.org and want to post on uk.comp.os.linux , you need to make alternative arrangements. I registered with

uk.comp.os.linux messages duplication
Just a heads up : in the last few weeks there has been an issue on uk.comp.os.linux where almost every post gets reposted by an
apparently broken gateway with altered headers. For example

For the reposts the header always had

It would have been useful if the 441 error included that link.

It's not always possible, much less easy, to get such hints to surface
where we want them to.

I've been in contact with the admin which is the source of the duplicates. Here is his reply: "There seems to be a loop in fidonet echomail side. i will check this asap."
It appears to be an unintentional issue and hopefully he can resolve it.

Since you have his contact details perhaps you can also bring to his attention
what RFC 5537 says :
An incoming gateway MUST add a Sender header field to the news
article it forms by containing the <mailbox> of the administrator of
the gateway. Problems with the gateway may be reported to this
<mailbox>.
There was no Sender header field in the duplicated messages hence we could not contact the gateway hence aioe had to handle it.
