OK. So there was only one duplicate, yes? And that duplication occurred
prior to the spam filtering that added the above header so presumably it
wasn't caused by filtering rules in your MUA.

Are all the Received: headers identical including Queue IDs and time
stamps? If so, the duplication must have occurred late in the delivery
chain.

It difficult to say what's happening here without seeing the MTA logs
from the various servers where duplication might have occurred, but
unless there are entries in Mailman's smtp-failure log on the Mailman
server, it is very unlikely that Mailman sent duplicates.
