My setup is decently unique --
I use my gmail account for the list, but have an Outlook client at home for
polling it.
If I post to the list from Outlook, I'll never see my post echoed back to
me. I'lll see the replies, but not the original post. However, if I hit
Gmail from it's web interface, I'll see my post as well come through.
Computers. Ack!
And I am indeed real. The bill collectors told me so.
