You can just ask the list to not send you a copy of mail with you in the 
To: or cc: fields...

* Goto http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
* At the base of the page enter your email address and click 'Unsubcribe 
or edit options'
* Enter your mailing list password and click 'Login'
* Set the 'Avoid duplicate copies of messages?' to yes
* No more duplicate messages...

Simple!
