Since we moved over to Mailman last week, some people have noticed they are not receiving copies of their own posts like they used to.

I'm seeing this myself, since Gmail used to echo back my own posts under the old system, but - like the Rootsweb lists - doesn't under Mailman.

There is a solution, a setting in your own account with the list, and you can set it yourself.

If you still have the welcome email from when this list was resurrected last week, go to that and click on the link provided to take you directly to your own subscription page.

If you don't have that any more, click on this link: http://legacyusers.com/mailman/options/legacyusergroup_legacyusers.com/

Log in to your account.

   If you don't know your password, fill in your email address in the
field provided and then click on the button to be sent a reminder. Remember, you must use the address with which you're subscribed to
   that mailing list. You'll receive an email telling you what the
   password for your account with this list is.


Now you're at a page that says "LegacyUserGroup mailing list membership configuration for <your email address>, <Your Name>". I expect the <Your Name> part won't be included if you haven't told Mailman your name; it's optional.

Scroll down to the Subscription Options section of the page, and look for the one "Receive acknowledgement mail when you send mail to the list?". Tick the Yes box, then click on the button "Submit My Changes" at the bottom of the window.

Now when you post to that list, you will receive a short email from the system to tell you that your post has been received by the mailing list. If the list is on moderation, there will be a delay until the post is approved.

Hope this helps.  :-)
