Gmail never shows you the list-sent copy of a post you sent to a list.  If you 
look at the thread that the message is in, it will show you the one that you 
sent, rather than the one that came back, missing all the list-added headers.

Personally, I think that's a very stupid decision on Google's part, but they 
don't seem willing to change it.

This should probably be in a FAQ somewhere because it seems like it gets asked 
on *some* mailing list I'm on about once a week.

I use shell scripts at ork. Some cow-orkers refuse to touch them, their
excuse is usually "I don't understand perl".  Their fear of perl is such
that all things unknown are also perl.  -- Andrew Dalgleish
