There are two possibilities:

1) The messages really get saved twice.

2) IMAP client copies the message to the same mailbox duplicating it.

I guess you use maildir? Set maildir_copy_with_hardlinks=yes. Then see
if the duplicated mails are hardlinks (e.g. stat to see if inodes are
same or if ls -l shows >1 links). Or you could enable mail-log plugin
and see if it shows "copy" lines for the message.
