I am on multiple mailing lists and the default behavior is to receive your own email also. I personally like it as obviously do many others or it would not be the default on most mailing lists. I also use mailman in our corporate office and we do the same thing.

<br>to use separate accounts for sending the mail and receiving the mailing list<br>posts. But if you are doing so, you are likely to have a mail client and thus<br>eliminating the issue.<br><br>I use (as you may see) a gmail account for this mail. I use KMail. When I send
<br>a mail from KMail, I can save the sent mail whereever I want, so that I don't<br>need to get it back from the mailing list. If I send a mail through gmail's<br>web interface (which I mostly don't do), I can download that mail via POP.
