Thanks Jennifer,
I imagine this will take care of the issue... and must have been what I
remember seeing something about.
Not necessary with normal email servers but Google's seems to keep track
of which mails were accessed ... and doesn't dish them out again ...
even if they weren't
I may misunderstand you, but are you looking for the Gmail recent

Have you read through the email headers to see how it was routed?
Gmail won't let you email a message to yourself for reasons of testing
or forwarding / transferring from the webmail to a computer running a
client that receives Gmail etc.
Apparently it decides you already have that email so doesn't send it.
Is there any way to defeat that ... turn that
Well, I may not understand your problem, but I just sent an email from my
gmail account to my gmail account and it came through with no problem. I
frequently do this for web links/info that I want to be available on
different computers.
I also have a group that I email to from my gmail account
Pretty tricky, eh? For testing, I use a different account e.g.
Yahoogmail works fine. Not something that has to be done often,
fortunately.

No I can't I can send it but I think what it does is it doesn't bother
to send it externally or whatever so my external non-web based client
can't poll for it and pick it up.
What the problem is exactly is if I pick up my email from my PDA client
email (SnapperMail) ... which is set to not
The same for me. If I start a C-Guys email, it won't show up until
someone replies to the message. Makes me doubt whether it ever went
out...
It would be nice to be able to get rid of this feature

This feature was bought home for me when I noticed a problem with mail
being forwarded from a webhost. It's been over a year so I don't
remember the details. But I kept sending myself emails and they
wouldn't show up. Tech support would log in and said they showed up
fine for them. Eventually I
What exactly is the feature? How does it work?
Maybe if we understood that we could find a solution...

POP Gmail accounts in Tbird
But it's on the Gmail server that the phenomenon is happening. my
forwarded gmails never get sent to Tbird from Gmail because as far as
the server is concerned it is sending to itself and it decides that
makes no sense and doesn't bother or something...

Now that you are all talking about this, I realized I've had problems
with it too. I can send an email from my gmail acct to my gmail
account all from Apple Mail with no problem. But if I send that
message out and happen to check my mail on my laptop instead of the
desk computer, I can
Yes... there is something going on... intentionally by design I think.
And it keeps me from doing things I occasionally want to / need to do.
If I knew what it was... that might be the first part of a fix/ workaround.
