What version of Growl are you using?

I have three macs - a mac mini, wife's macbook pro and my macbook air. I tried to set up so that messages from several python apps running on a Unix server send messages to the mac mini. This part works fine.

I am trying to forward the messages from the mac mini to the two laptops. I assigned a password (actually the same one) to all of the computers. I can forward to each computer individually without problem. When I try to send to both computers, it sends two messages to the macbook air and ignores the macbook pro. The network name of the air comes first when sorted alphabetically and the ip address is smaller. So I'm guessing either way, the air's gonne be the one that should get the first message. Note sure why it gets them both, though. Guessing it's a bug.

I can get it to work by chaining the forwards (i.e. mac mini forwards to mac air forwards to macbook). However, this is not ideal as the Mac Mini is the only computer of the three which is always on.

I have tried resetting all the preferences and rebooting all the computers without help.

Any ideas?

Excellent question. After I posted this I immediately realized I forgot to put that but couldn't edit it because it was awaiting moderator approval!!!

Anyway, Growl 2.0 on all three macs. I'm Mountain Lion on all three as well.

Hello, so this should be fixed for 2.0.1. When I was rewriting the
networking stack for 2.0, this slipped in somehow, and was missed by
me and the beta testers. Luckily I was getting ready to rewrite that
portion of code today anyways to add in new features for 2.1, and I
saw your email before I started in on it, so I was able to realize
what I had done wrong originally, and fix it while adding the new
features.

We moderate on first post so that spammers don't get onto the list. It's worked pretty well overall. I just killed 3 spam emails that came in about an hour ago for instance.
