Jan,
It probably has to do with the mailing list changing the header of your
messages, so they are "from" the list and not "from" you... so the Entourage
rule isn't picking up that it's yours. At least that's my theory.... Are you
receiving the messages as digests and having them burst, or just receiving
messages all day long? I currently have two newsgroups, both set to digest
and to burst on receipt, with what sounds like the same settings as yours -
my messages are moved to my list folder, and incoming messages from me
deleted. Works perfectly.
The other suggestion would be to NOT have the messages you send to the list
filed in the folder, and NOT have your incoming messages deleted. Your
outgoing would end up in your outbox (ok, not deleted, but at least you
aren't getting double messages), and you would see your posts to the list
like normal.
