Gmail, and sites that delegate their email service to Google, use the Message-ID to deduplicate your mail. If you post from Gmail, Gmail knows you already have a copy in your Sent folder, and throws away the copy from the mailing list. This is superficially reasonable (this is the kind of thing that Message-IDs are used for!), but for several reasons the mailing list copy is likely to be more useful than the Sent folder copy. Unfortunately, this policy is long-established and Google explicitly refuses to change it. Mike
