I think only those of certain posters.
There are 3060425 .nzb files with 1 part in our database, and 248396 with 2 parts.
So seems there are doubles in 8% of the cases.

No the "(1/1)" part in the subject indicates there should only be one part.
If the post exists twice in a newsgroup, we indeed mention both msgids in the NZB Binsearch generates.
We do not know which one is the best one either.
Both message-ids do actually exist in the newsgroups:

Probably caused by a broken posting program that does not handle cross-posting
well. (Newsmangler?)
The poster cross-posted to two newsgroups (a.b.teevee and a.b.multimedia).
With a well behaved posting programs, there should only be a single post that
mentions the names of both groups.
Instead there are actually two seperate messages in the newsgroups.
Anyway, we'll probably do an attempt to deduplicate them.
Given that it doesn't affect actual downloading it's not a priority though.
