Catherine, here's a list of places I am aware of that would have you
receiving your own complete posts. Incomplete posts, I can't help you
with.
In the debian mail list sign-on page referenced at the bottom of each
post, there is an option to send your posts to yourself.
In many MUAs, including Apple Mail, the last I looked, there is an
option to include yourself as a recipient of every message you post.
There are similar settings in gmail, including one that was
recommended for those not using the webmail client some years back,
but it no longer recommended.
Although, since you say the duplicates have stopped, your suspicion of
strange interactions with Time Machine might be on target.

Apple Mail doesn't put in line breaks, as I recall. You can see that
by noticing the quote indent character on the quote from you, above,
and the multiple quote indent characters on Ralf's quote, below. (If
the gmail web MUA doesn't trip me up.)

Be careful where you see conspiracy.
Look first in your own heart.
