Hi all,
Excuse me, but why do you actually want to receive your own posts? You posted
those, so you already have them? The only reason I can think of is if trying
to use separate accounts for sending the mail and receiving the mailing list
posts. But if you are doing so, you are likely to have a mail client and thus
eliminating the issue.
I use (as you may see) a gmail account for this mail. I use KMail. When I send
a mail from KMail, I can save the sent mail whereever I want, so that I don't
need to get it back from the mailing list. If I send a mail through gmail's
web interface (which I mostly don't do), I can download that mail via POP.
Maybe I don't understand the issue correctly and if so, please excuse me and
clarify...
Best regards
