Oh dear...  Since you also are posting from a gmail account, and the list 
echo is deleted, that is not surprising.  Cc: yourself, or find a 
different, non gmail, mail server to use would be my best 
recommendation. Cc'ing yourself is no guarantee the list got it, so 
while it would probably serve the purpose, it comes with no warranty.  
Much the same thing could be accomplished if we could train our email 
agents to store the sent mail in the list folder it was in at the time, 
but that comes with the same null & void warranty.  It has not made 
the "round trip", meaning everyone on the associated list will see it.

Cheers, Gene Heskett
