The only time I see bounces is when I accidentally post with a wrong
address. Some lists drop those messages, so if my message doesn't
appear on-list after an hour or so I check which ID was attached to
the message.

I deal with this by setting my folders to include send as well as
receive mail. For private mail, people probably like GMail's setting,
but for lists a work-around is needed.

This I can't understand. I now send and receive all my mail through
GMail (they collect from my other addresses). Their spam filter
catches hundreds every day and I get perhaps 4-5 a week getting
through. I do not need any of the dance you describe, despite being
subscribed to very many lists.
It's really hard for us to guess why your setup gets problems that
ours don't.
