13 If that is the case, you are not having any problem; we've gotten the 3
14 repeat mails about this issue (I at least don't know how to solve it
15 though), but the reason the messages are not coming back to you is
16 because you used your GMail account.

18 Gmail discards the return of your mail from the list, because it already
19 has a copy of this mail (in your 'Sent' folder). You will never get
20 mails from yourself appearing in ML threads via Gmail for this reason
21 (until someone replies to them, which no one has in this case).
22
23 So there is no problem, you've just encountered a GMail 'feature'.
