There's a mailman option to disable duplicated mails, but IIRC that
could cause issues too. Mailman just sends one message, the duplicated
message is the Cc'ed one, directly send by the sender. Not all mailing
lists share the same CoC, that's why I sent my "Mailing list reply with
and without Cc" request to this list [1].

Most mailing lists don't want Cc'ed mails and they added a link to the
CoC to the mailing list page, e.g.
https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-users mentions
"Please read community.ubuntu.com/contribute/support/mailinglists/ about
mailing etiquette."

Regards,
Ralf
