I've been experiencing the same issue for a long time.

My messages are sent, people seem to actually receive them, but I don't,
although my subscription options state that I should receive copies of
my own messages.

I'm reading both your messages on gmane vi a newsreader (Pan) - my 
preferred method. No issues whatever.

One 'obvious' thing to try --
  Change the options so as to _not_ get copies of your own messages.
  *SAVE* changes.
  Change the options back.
  Save again.

Yes, I went and checked my options for questions@ and saw at the top of
the page that they had had a number of bounced e-mails from my address
recently.  My computer was down for about a week or so earlier this
month (had to be repaired).  I'm not sure what this means exactly in
terms of how the list server manages my subscription, but perhaps it's
being tentatively cautious and just not sending any of my list
submissions back to me(?).  I don't know.

I didn't actually change any settings while I was there, but that might
be worth a try.  We'll see if that helps.

Now this is the reason that you should have had some sort of backup
plan in place in case your mail server goes down. There are methods of
handling this problem and I am sure if you started a new thread and
requested help that many knowledgeable users would be willing to lend
you their expertise.

Messages not reaching the lists
