I did not get this twice, so you seem to be right.
But the mail I have got came from lists.us.dell.com - how is mailman able 
to suppress the second mail which YOU have sent directly to me with 
Reply-To-All (not mailman)?

But anyways, as long as mailman does not add a Reply-To-List (only), lots 
of mail programs need hand-editing the header (delete the "private" To:, 
fill in the Cc: address into the To: field, delete Cc:).
