You are absolutely right. Of course, I use already a longer time the 
sent folder in both POP3 and the web interface to find and archive my 
own contributions to lists. But it still is a provisional, not very 
satisfactory solution. I simply want to get direct feed-back from a list 
about my contributions sent to it.

However, in evolution what I did is to define a filter looking for messages sent to the list both in the incoming and outgoing folder. I imagine there is a similar workaround using the google interface.

Another interesting suggestion for a provisional solution that does not 
solve the core issue.
The only thing I really want in this context is GMAIL to give me an 
option to 'clutter my e-mail box' with my own contributions. So far I 
did not manage to find such an option.

Bas.
