Question group mail and individual mail address

Hello everyone ,
I need help with a little information about a subject.

We have 1 group e-mail address ([email protected])
There are 4 personal e-mail addresses in [email protected].
The mails are working, there is no problem in this regard.

But when the sender sends it to [email protected] and [email protected], there are two in the mail inbox.
Even if we warn the sender, sometimes it doesn't work.

If [email protected] and [email protected] addresses are included in the incoming mail, 2 mails are sent to [email protected].

What can I do to make it drop 1 pc.

Thank you in advance for your help.
 
There is no option to detect whether the same content has been mailed twice to different recipients so that the mail sent to the forwarding list will not be forwarded. If two mails are sent to two different addresses, they will each be treated as the separate mails that they are.

yes, we agree on that.

but if the incoming e-mail contains both the recipient address and the group e-mail address, won't a single mail be sent to the recipient's inbox?
 
The point is that when a mail is sent to two recipients, the sender splits it into two separate mails, not the recipient. For that reason your mailserver does not receive 1 mail with 2 recipients, but 2 mails with 1 recipient each. There is not way how the recipient can tell whether it is the same mail.
