There is a strange kind of filtering sometimes
going on where either Gmail (my provider for
@derekmail.com) or Yahoo or other lists don't
show you your own posts if you sent them because
it assumes you don't need to see them because
they are already in your Sent Mail so you already have them.
This sometimes makes it seem as though your own
outbound emails are not being received by your
community, but in fact, they have. If people
*respond* to your posts, then you can see that
your original email went through by implication.
But if nobody responds to your post, it can
sometimes seem as though an email you sent to an
email list never went out whereas it actually did.
Then, if you log in as a different user, you can see those missing posts.
I have no idea if this happened to you, but it
can happen sometimes, and may explain some mysteries.
