I don't think there's anything you can do about that. There's no way that I know of to have a single copy of the message sent to both places. At least, not short of writing a filter+delivery agent [for SMTP] that (in addition to passing it on for normal delivery) recognizes a local user in the From line and delivers a message directly into a non-INBOX mail folder... ouch!! -- Or conversely, I suppose you could write something to check a specified folder in an IMAP account and retrieve all messages so as to send them out via an SMTP/sendmail interface, and then delete from the IMAP folder each message that was sent... ouch again!! (In fact, now that I think about it I may have recently heard of someone writing, or considering writing, something like that... but I'm not sure.)
So you're not likely to be able to avoid that issue, not without more pain than it's probably worth going through anyway.
If it helps, look at it this way... Don't think of it as "sending the message twice". Instead, view it as "sending the message once, and saving a copy to a remote disk over the network." You'd send just as much data if you were merely storing it "locally" in your Sent folder *IF* that folder was on an NFS/SMB/AFP mounted filesystem instead of a local drive. -- But I'll bet you wouldn't be bothered by it sending another copy of it in that case, because the OS was doing it instead of the mail client. :) It's all about perspective sometimes.
