I use a similar scheme (submit my own email to myself for filing) and
also use mutt's $record setting.
And I also get dups due to this practice. An alternative to stripping
dups with procmail, which I find risky unless you keep a per folder db,
is that you can have mutt strip the duplicates when you enter a folder:
tag duplicated messages (the "~=" pattern) and delete. You can push that
via a folder hook so it is automatic.
