It is either the matter od configuring mail-list server or your own mail
client. When somebody replies you your message in mail-list by using
"replay to all" function, then you will get one copy and the list will
get one copy of the reply. Therefore you will actually get two copies -
one direclty for you and one throu mail-list.

The other thing is that quite many discussions are being held in two
mail-lists simultainously. Therefore if have subscribed to both lists,
you will get two e-mails. You cant (at least i havent figured out how)
tell a mailfilter to move a message to say pgsql-general folder based on
the address and the next copy of the same message to say psql-advocacy
folder if the address bar includes both a psql-general and psql-advocacy
mail addresses. Mail filter processes the rules one by one and if
psql-general rule precedes psql-advocacy rule then both messages will be
processed by the psql-general rule and youll get two copies of the same
message.

Perhaps there are more clever ways to filter mail
