I was suggesting that one way to address that complaint would be for
your mail client to detect the duplication and hide the duplicate copies.

That sounds good in theory.  But the practice that I'm exposed to doesn't
work out well.

I usually receive the direct replies before the copy from the mailing
list.  With the copy coming in from the mailing list after the message
directly to me is processed, there is little chance of retroactively
removing the original copy.  At least from procmail filters.  I'm also
not aware of much that Thunderbird can do.

Cyrus IMAP does duplicate suppression by default, so I never see more than one copy. I usually send replies to both author and list, because you never know how long the mail will take over the list, and with a modern server duplicates are a non-issue.
