Gmail also filters your own posts, that it's not possible to turn that
off gmail calls a "feature".  I call it a bug, and so have others over
the years.  I prefer to see my own posts to mailing lists, to see them
actually come back from the mailing list.  The work around for that
gmail "feature" means that it can't filter the duplicates.  I just grit
my teeth and put up with too much info instead of not enough.
