I take a look at your headers and I see this :
Mail-Followup-To: debian-user@lists.debian.org, Ian Balchin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
so you're getting a duplicate because you asked for it. (I manually
took out the Cc for this message) Now the question becomes "why did I
ask for a duplicate I don't want?".
How do you set your return address? (ie the From: field) Can you
post your .muttrc? Here's the settings I have that I think are
relevant
set [EMAIL PROTECTED]
set alternates = "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
subscribe debian-user@lists.debian.org
Did you set "subscribe" or "lists" for debian user? If the latter,
then that is your problem.

It works for me. I have a 3 button mouse though. Does anyone know if
gpm can emulate 3 buttons like X can?

Good, you're using a pipe instead of an SMTP connection. I think that
is the better method.

I think it worked then. Did you get the message? THat length
difference is just a warning, not an error, I think. Also the
difference being only 4 bytes is quite trivial. Perhaps four CRLF
combos were stripped to LF.

FYI here's the index_format I like (all list mail is delivered to
~/Mail/lists/<list-ident>) :
# sorting for inbox
folder-hook "!" 'set sort=date-received'
# sorting for lists
folder-hook lists.* 'set sort=threads sort_aux=date'
folder-hook lists.* 'set index_format="%3C %Z %[%b%d] %-17.17n(%?M?#%3M&%4c?)
%s"'
folder-hook Sent 'set index_format="%3C %Z %[!%b%d] %-17.17F(%?M?#%3M&%4c?) %s"'
One difference is that the message size is shown in bytes instead of
lines. Also if a thread is collapsed it shows "# n", where n is the
number of hidden messages, instead of the size of the first message.

Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as braided hair
and the wearing of gold jewelry and fine clothes. Instead, it should be
that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet
spirit, which is of GREAT WORTH in God's sight. For this is the way the
holy women of the past used to make themselves beautiful.
