I sometimes receive e-mails I post to this list, like I did the bug I reported about X problems, but other times not, like my first post about that before I reported the bug. That one appeared in gmane, but Evolution never picked it up. And today I've not seen either of my posts but I know it got there because I did see a reply to my post about the flash plugin and it had a snippet of my post init. I've looked at all the seetings I can think of and nothing struck me as suppressing my own. I use gmail and ISTR a discussion recently about some issues with that. Anyone got a clue(bat) for me? Thanks, Bill

Opinions may differ on that matter of course.... If you are using the web interface you can find them with a search like 'from: me' (which also usefully picks up responses to threads where you have posted, at least in the conversation view). -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell at gmail.com

Gmail has never delivered a copy of mail I've sent to a list where I'm a subscriber (which is colossally stupid). So it's totally normal. If you want to be sure a message you've sent was delivered to the list, the surest way is to check the archives. http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos/ --keith -- kkeller at wombat.san-francisco.ca.us

I send to the list on gmail and address a copy to myself on AOL. -- _ ?v? /(_)\ ^ ^ Mark LaPierre Registered Linux user No #267004 https://linuxcounter.net/ ****

I use Evolution to pick up and download and almost never use the web interface. I suspected what you describe but was foolishly thinking there must be some setting so I could see my own stuff. Oh well ... Again, thanks for taking the time. Bill
