I think that even if you actually knew the answer before you asked, it's still better for community to "pretend" that you ask and answer than to keep it all to yourself. Many of us (or even yourself in the future) could face the same issue; and mailing list archive is good place to keep notes. (BTW, as a PoC example this principle is actually encouraged at StackExchange forums; when posting the question, you have an "answer your question" checkbox that adds Answer field to the form so you can answer your own question right away! As long as it's helpful, readable and on-topic, you get the reputation points as a reward (voting system). I don't see why this should not apply to mailing list.)
