Alex et. al, I believe the reason you do not get your own posts is because you are originating them from a gmail address. I too use gmail and bcc myself when I post now, otherwise I don't get mine either.
Years ago, I used a Hotmail edress and would always receive a copy of my post without the bcc.. The tech folks behind the curtain can verify or nullify my thesis here, but I think that's why you don't get your own posts. -- Sincerely, Jim Ryan Saint Paul's Westside ---- One of the first conditions of happiness is that the link between Man and Nature shall not be broken. -* Leo Tolstoy* A well governed appetite is the greater part of liberty. - *Lucius Annaeus Seneca* ---- On Mon, Apr 2, 2012 at 9:07 AM, Alex Cruz <alexcru...@gmail.com> wrote: > Good question! > > I know the main reason I don't post as often is because I don't > receive my own messages via MOU listserve when I send an email message > to it.
