Interesting.  I am using Apple’s Mail app in Mavericks to access gmail.com via 
IMAP.  Part of the sync process gmail does include a folder called archive.  My 
original message is in that folder but not in my mailbox.  I guess some 
listservs work differently.  I always thought that my messages were being 
moderated for some reason.

Thanks for the clarification.
