If you use gmail you can cc or bcc to yourself as well as to the list and then 
get your own mal in the inbox

That is what i am resorting to.

Otherwise if you want to read your own mail to the list before someone
replies on it you can read it in sent mail

Yes, but i want it sent to the mailbox that my j gMail is received
through not the gMail box that it is sent through. Not necessarily the
same thing;-)

In gmail you can put you mail in groups one or more and then find it in the 
groups and you do not need to keep a copy of it in the inbox

Really? i looked for that capability and could not find it.
i got the impression that Googles mantra was search, don't sort into folders.
There are a limited number of "Labels" which can be set with "filters"
and i do use those, though not in my writing gMailbox..

It is a good practice not to keep the mail in the inbox

in my writing gMailbox i Only use the Inbox
It is a purely transactional account.
i delete everything once i have attended to the matter.
and no file movements are automated, full manual.

If i need something which turned out to not be fully attended to after
deletion i pull it from the deletion by search or, in the rare
instance it is past the Google deletion daemon's harvest time, i go
back to the separate gMail account which archives the mailing - my
Archive gMailboxes.

So far it seems a good system.
Would like to automate it.
Anyone understand AJAX?

There are bugs in the interaction
of Googles AJAX, for sure.
Eg periodically it crashes FireFox.
That seems mostly related to the
"Go Back" functionality
possibly in relation to its
https security code.

So it would not surprise me if there were a bug in gMail which is the issue.
As Bill Lam suggests...

I've reported this problem earlier and some members confimed the same problem. 
I subscribe to another mail list using mailman+gmail and have the same problem. 
My  experience can be summarised as.

mailman + gmail => can not receive own post
mailman + non-gmail => no problem
non-mailman + gmail => no tested

We should keep our eyes on #3 there may be issues with Yahoogroups too.

I guess this is a problem of gmail itself, May be Chris could test it using a 
gmail account.

Some one should do it in an isolated account with full privileges on
both sides of the problem for sure. It is becoming difficult to manage
the debugging from here ... eg i need to do all the BCC'ing to ensure
i archive my half of the story, and thus i cannot test all the
variables.

It might be a worthy investigation.
