Not quite.  The message is there, and is listed in the thread, but you'd
never know it because gmail doesn't consider it a new message.

I don't quite consider it a bug, but it's certainly a misfeature. ;-)  It's
definitely better behaviour than Outlook, which delivers a copy to you for
every single time your address appears in the To: list. ...

Metta,
