If it only happens on replies to you then the problem is probably that
instead of just replying to the list many people reply to both the list
and to the sender of the message they replied to[1]. There's not much
you can do about it other than filter out duplicate copies of messages.
If it happens for all messages, then you are probably either subscribed
twice or have a problem with your mail system.
[1] There are arguments in favour of doing this (eg, work around slow
lists) but I tend to disagree with them.
