Actually it does show up. The problem is that Gmail silently throws away
your own post when it gets emailed back to you by the listserv.  But
your messages still get through to the list.  The only way I've figure
out to get around this bug in Gmail is to post from a different SMTP
server than the normal GMail one.  But most people don't have a
different SMTP server to use, and also there are issues with DKIM and
other supposed anti-spam features.
