RE: making Gmail show own messages (was: Re: testing OT)
Outlook does the same, I find it difficult to say it is a bug or a feature though. OTOH in Outlook I can set an option to store the sent email with the replied to one, if it is in a folder other than Inbox. But that doesn't mean of course that the list received it, only that I saved my sent email. I never use the web interfaces for email, only Outlook. That way I get a consistent view and behaviour.
