Ron,
i just tried to repeat this on my Mac (OS 10.6.6) Mail 4.4 (1082) but i have
only one mail not a duplicate.
Maybe i misunderstood, but that is what i did: i moved with webmail
(squirrelmail) an email from the SENT-Folder to the INBOX and rechecked
mails on my mac. I get then just this newly moved mail, but not two of them.
If i move it back to the SENT Folder, shortly after, it disappears in Mac
Mail like it should.

I guess this is most likely a bug or misconfiguration in Mac Mail. This mail
client is really not perfect ;-)
