Hate to tell you this folks, but it is not a "problem" other
than how YOU set up your subscription to the list. Many of
the newer lists offer the option - "echo" a copy back to the
sender - or just an acknowledge message - - usually the default
is the acknowledge and you must change your subscription setup
to receive an "echo". Generally this is done by sending a
message to the "command" address of the list.

To subscribe, change options, or unsubscribe, please see the instructions
