I've unchecked the "nodupes" setting for myself in the mailing list configuration to see if that will allow me to recieve a copy of my own posting to the list. As I understand the documentation, it should only make a difference if I Cc myself when posting, which I don't, or if someone Cc's me when they post to the list it should prevent the list from sending me a copy. But sometimes things don't work as documented. ;-) -- Dave Lundy WQGU701 <www.dma.org/~lundyd> <www.flickr.com/photos/lundyd> <www.youtube.com/DMADave> <www.dailymotion.com/lundyd> <www.facebook.com/lundyd43> <www.twitter.com/lundyd>

Dave, I think the nodupes setting also works if you send a message to two lists at febo.com simultaneously, to only deliver a single copy. So if you send to lwtg and mvus-list, you get only one copy yourself. I think.

Much to my surprise, I did receive the message I posted after I had unchecked "nodupes", so Mailman's behaviour doesn't quite sync with its documentation. So, if you want to recieve messages from the list that you post, you should log in to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mvus-list and change your preferences. You would need to do the same for your LWTG subscription at https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/lwtg. So, should we make that the default setting for new users? Members may change their own preferences at any time. I had erroneously reported previously that I did receive my own posts on LWTG even though my settings were the same on both lists. > Dave Lundy said the following on 12/05/2009 02:05 PM: > > I've unchecked the "nodupes" setting for myself in the mailing list >> configuration >> to see if that will allow me to recieve a copy of my own posting to the >> list.

Yes, I think we should change the defaults; the other behaviour is convenient, but unexpected and doesn't verify that you got the all the addresses right if you intend to hit multiple lists.
