same way if i send mail to autoreply user then also sender get two mail.
Solution 1:
Most likely you have a content filter and the always_bcc is being called both before and after the content filter. Customise the smtpd either before or after the content filter to include
-o receive_override_options=no_address_mappings
(Note that options in master.cf can't contain spaces).
