I don't have a particularly slick way of dealing with it. I've
discovered that messages are often left in my $TMP directory (or /tmp)
and not deleted for some reason, and that sometimes saves me the
trouble of retyping it, but for the most part, I value the sanity of
not having to store that many duplicate messages over the convenience
of not having to retype things on the rare occasion that they are
lost.
It occurs to me, though, that you may be able to have procmail feed
your mailing list messages (whose return address match your posting
address) to a script that will extract the message-ID (e.g. with
formail) and delete the message with that message-ID from your sent
mailbox (this is easy if Sent is stored as a Maildir, probably harder
if it's an mbox), and then deliver the message to the mailing list
folder.
