Gary Roach says no list mails which he himself has sent appear in his debian-user folder (or whatever he uses). I haven't followed the thread assiduously but he hasn't said that some appear but others don't. Tracking down his problem depends very much on his email setup. Like others, I am reluctant to see list operation as the issue. The list sends mail to whatever addresses are subscribed to it but it is worth thinking about how we on the list know someone is subscribed. For example, there is nothing in my mails which indicates my subscription address to other list members. The point being: his From: address may be [email protected] but this isn't necessarily a subscribed address. The advice I gave will confirm it or not.
