For Claws I'm using incoming filter rules to mark all mails for
all accounts with a colour label. All mails without a List-ID header
are displayed in blue in the Claws mail message list. All message
containing a List-ID header are displayed in black in the Claws message
list. Assuming no other colour labels are applied it's easy to
distinguish duplicates without taking a look at the headers. It should
be possible to set similar filter rules for Evolution, too.

[rocketmouse@archlinux ~]$ grep -eFirst -eSecond .claws-mail/matcherrc
enabled rulename "First - Color label \"No List-Id\" Steel blue" all color 12
enabled rulename "Second - No Color label \"List-Id\" Black" header "List-Id" regexpcase ".*" color 0

However, I'm in favour of avoiding duplicates by the mailing list
settings, but it doesn't make sense for mailing lists that expect
CC'ing.
