If understand correctly, your concern is with the second copy of a
message with the same message-id not showing up in your inbox? If so, this is
more or less a feature (although in the case where the duplicated
message id's are because of malice or stupidity on the sender's part,
and not duplicated messages, it is also a known bug).  

On the command line you can try "notmuch search --output=files id:foo"
where id:foo is copied via "c i" in the emacs interface.

Or maybe I misunderstand your problem completely.
