Hi,
Could someone give me the mail name and address of the list
moderator please. Since upgrading my hardware and doing a fresh install
of F43, along with a fresh install of the upstream Thunderbird Daily,
any mails I send to the list or any replies I send to the list are not
being echoed back to me unless I put my email address as a CC. I had the
same issue under F42 but the issue of replies not being echoed back to
me was rectified by the moderator (I hadn't raised the issue of new
mails not being echoed back), so I need to contact that person again.
The headers in the mail suggest: [email protected]
Yep.
I'd be surprised at anything changing on the list concurrently with you
updating your system, though there were options you could set about
seeing your own replies (long ago when I joined up).
Nothing has really changed recently on the list side.
On the other hand, Gmail, is well known for treating email in oddball
ways and posts apparently to yourself from yourself can disappear.
It's been particularly funny about that with hiding people's own posts
to mailing lists. You could look in your *junk* folder, or look at
what ends up in whatever gmail uses as the *sent* folder (perhaps the
mails you authored, and the forwarded version that went through the
list).
gmail has done this since it existed.
If you send a post to a list, it saves a copy in your 'sent' folder.
When the list sends your post back to you, gmail says 'oh, I already
have a message with that same message id, no need to store this one'.
I think there's various ways people have worked around this by making
gmail filters that save an extra copy or something, but I am not sure of
the details.

Thanks Kevin, that explains why this issue started happening when I
switched from my ISP's email to gmail (when the company that bought my
ISP outsourced their email functionality to a company that charges for
the email). What I don't understand is previously when I raised the
issue with a moderator, when I was using F42, relative to replies not
being echoed back to me unless I included my mail address in the CC
entry, the moderator rectified the issue, but I also had the issue with
mails that I wrote from scratch sent to the mail list. Given that the
reply issue was fixed by the moderator why would installing F43 from
scratch recreate the issue, when under both systems, Thunderbird Daily
was configured to store all mails (including local folders) on the
server and to not replicate them locally?
If the issue is that the echoing of the sent mail to the sent folder on
the server is causing gmail to think it doesn't need to retain the
"echo", if I configure Thunderbird to save the sent mail in a local
"sent" folder, would that rectify the issue for both replies and sent mail?
