The problem I'm having is that subscription confirmatione-mails arrive in duplicate or quadruplicate (!!!!). Plus, subscription reminders come in even larger quantities. The "subscribe" log shows apparently independent subscription requests, so I'm kinda stumped on what's causing this.
What exactly is in your MTA logs? What is in your Mailman logs?Can you show us some examples of duplicate messages, with all the headers intact?
Mailman subscribe log (machine/email addresses changes to protect the customer :):

This indicates that Mailman processed the subscribe request 4 times. Everything else you provided is consistent with this and thus adds nothing more.
The question is why is Mailman processing the request 4 times. Is it a bug in mailman or does mailman actually receive 4 requests?
Does the request arrive via the web interface (subscribe form on the listinfo page) or via e-mail. If from the web, what do the web servers logs say about how many 'post' transactions were processed? If via mail, what do the incoming MTA logs say about how many messages were piped to the wrapper?
