Simple, your mailing list profile is set to not send your own messages
back to you.
Ordinarily, you will get a copy of every message you post to the list. If you
don't want to receive this copy, set this option to No.

Steve -
Nice try. I just checked my ubuntu mailing list optioins, and that option is set to 'Yes'...
I appreciate the response, though.
The only interesting thing I find in looking at the mail header for messages on the list is this:
Received-SPF: neutral (google.com: 91.189.94.204 is neither permitted nor denied by best guess record for domain of ubuntu-users-bounces@lists.ubuntu.com) client-ip=91.189.94.204;
Authentication-Results: mx.google.com; spf=neutral (google.com: 91.189.94.204 is neither permitted nor denied by best guess record for domain of ubuntu-users-bounces@lists.ubuntu.com) smtp.mail=ubuntu-users-bounces@lists.ubuntu.com

Is it marked as spam? If not, it does work.
The messages that I do get from the list come to the Inbox, so they are not marked as Spam.
> If the only mail I can't get is MY OWN,
You don't get an additional copy because you already have the copy
that you have sent. In the web interface it is inserted in the thread
it is a part of. It can indeed be confusing if you access it via POP3.
Of course, it's in the Sent box. But, if that were the logic behind it, why could I set an option on the Ubuntu mailing list to 'have a copy of my messages sent to me'... ?
If I post a message to the list, it doesn't show up in my Inbox..
If I reply to a message on the list that has not first been sent to both the list & me, it doesn't show up in my Inbox.

The messages you send are not marked as spam either. You don't see
them because you have already seen them when you wrote them.

This setting applies to other providers than Gmail, which use a different logic.
The Gmail logic is that messages are not put in separate folders. What
looks like folders are really different views of the single set of all
messages, or rather of conversations (threads) which contain messages.
The same conversation and thus the same messages may appear in
different views. For example a message you have sent to a mailing list
appears both under the label of the mailing list (if you use labels
for that) and among messages that you have sent. There is no need to
have two copies of that message.
This is different from the traditional Unix approach to mail, where
each message may appear only in one folder, and thus it is typical to
have one copy as the sent one and another as the received one. The
confusion arises only where the two worlds meet, i.e. when you access
Gmail via POP3, and it does not offer copies messages that have been
already sent through it.
Marcin
Ok. I'll grant that having multiple copies of emails is overkill, so I'd be willing to live with the fact that, if I send a message to anyone, it will not show up in the Inbox (which is the way every mail client i've ever seen actually works). BUT, If I reply to a message on the Ubuntu list which has not previously been sent to BOTH the list AND me personally, I don't see these replies. I've replied to probably a dozen or more threads in the last few days (not my own), and my replies dont' show up, either. So, in context of those on the list, I'm not contributing anything to the community - just asking questions...
I am currently only accessing the list via the gmail web interface - I'm not sure which protocol that is using. If you can shed some light on this, maybe it's a way to resolving this.

Well, you can't. That's all. There is no such option. The guys at gmail
knows better than you, or so they think.

You should see the messages that you sent; Gmail throws out copies of
these messages because it already shows them from the moment you send
them. For example this very thread has 19 messages: 9 yours, 4 mine
(including this one), and 6 from others. How many messages do you see?
So far this month - unless someone replies to a thread I send with both me and the list in the "to" address, I don't see it at all. The reason you see my replies here is because the message the message was addressed to me as well as the list, and my text was quoted in the replies.

I see your messages in 13 threads of this list in August and 4 in July
(could be more in July, but I subscribed in July so I can't look
further).
I've initiated about 9 threads of my own in August, responded to about a dozen other peoples' posts, and replied at least once to all of my own.

If you create a filter with the web interface that applies a label to
all messages that contain the words "ubuntu-users.lists.ubuntu.com", all
messages from the list, including those that you send, will appear when
you view that label (with the web interface) or that folder (with IMAP).
Your messages will not have the "Ubuntu Users Mailing List" information
at the bottom of the message, but that should not be an issue.
