I'm only getting multiple copies of messages that have my address in
the "to" field and the mailing list in the "cc" field, which has
always been the case. However, I eliminate the duplicates with the
following Procmail recipe:
# isolate duplicate messages

   :0 Whc: msgid.lock
   | formail -D 8192 $PMDIR/msgid.cache
   :0 a:
   duplicates


That last line might as well be /dev/null but I save them to a file
just in case a mistake is made (i.e., two non-identical messages sent
almost at the same time having the same message id - not likely).
