Talk notifications produce double email notifications (confirmed by para, Sudoking and me), or even quadruple (harriv). Emails have different id but it's the same server producing the multiple output.
Confirmed in Wikimedia or in other MediaWiki installations too?
As happening in WMF setup.

A better improved redundant repeating summary, easier to find in search, I sure couldn't find this bug without being told the number.

I tried it on mediawiki.org and I didn't get a duplicate. How often does this happen? Can someone provide a more detailed case, including diff URL?

On all wiki with watchlist email enabled, with every watchlisted page. I got this on Meta for example: http://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Global_rollback&diff=0&oldid=1375503 Received: from srv155.pmtpa.wmnet ([10.0.2.155]:36637) by mchenry.wikimedia.org with smtp (Exim 4.69) (envelope-from <wiki@wikimedia.org>) id 1LjDh3-0004WJ-FZ at 16 Mar 2009 14:21:30 +0000 and Received: from srv155.pmtpa.wmnet ([10.0.2.155]:36693) by mchenry.wikimedia.org with smtp (Exim 4.69) (envelope-from <wiki@wikimedia.org>) id 1LjDh4-0004Wx-Ic at 16 Mar 2009 14:21:31 +0000 or on azwiki http://az.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C4%B0stifad%C9%99%C3%A7i_m%C3%BCzakir%C9%99si:Melos Received: from srv158.pmtpa.wmnet ([10.0.2.158]:43333) by mchenry.wikimedia.org with smtp (Exim 4.69) (envelope-from <wiki@wikimedia.org>) id 1Li5Qb-000318-3H Received: by srv158.pmtpa.wmnet (sSMTP sendmail emulation); Fri, 13 Mar 2009 11:19:49 +0000 and Received: from srv158.pmtpa.wmnet ([10.0.2.158]:43398) by mchenry.wikimedia.org with smtp (Exim 4.69) (envelope-from <wiki@wikimedia.org>) id 1Li5Qc-00031O-4o Received: by srv158.pmtpa.wmnet (sSMTP sendmail emulation); Fri, 13 Mar 2009 11:19:50 +0000
Re comment #8: did the edit summary and username in the email match the history entry?
Fixed in r48505. MediaWiki was sending duplicate emails unconditionally, the problems with reproducing this bug were most likely due to duplicate filtering downstream, causing emails sent in the same second to be merged.
