I can see 2 copies of most of the emails (not 3 and not for all emails) 
but they are part of the archive itself.  Try this commandline:

        zgrep ^Message-ID 2006-July.txt.gz |sort |uniq -c

It tells you what messages are there in the archive (using the message
id, which should be unique) and it tells you how many copies of each.

So I don't see a Mutt bug here: Mutt reads exactly what's in the file.
