When Rob Austein and I discovered this (geez, it must have been a year ago or more), there was no obvious way to change the default (looking at UI and code), so we put it off - I guess for long enough that the UI might have caught up... I noticed it because I tend to delete the version of a mail to list+me that ends up in my inbox, because I know it'll end up in my listbox too, and that stopped happening. The action to recommend to existing users is to go to your options for some list, e.g., https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/options/ietf , scroll down to the bottom, in the "Avoid duplicate copies of messages?" box, select "No" and "Set globally", then "Submit my changes". If someone with a little more mailman clue than I can figure out a withlist script (or similar) to set this default for all lists and all users that'd probably be quite useful.
