I imagine that GMail is doing duplication detection.  It knows you
already have that message under Sent Mail, so it doesn't expose it
again when it comes back from the list.

I'm not sure how much detection it's doing.  How much modification can
it handle before it fails to detect the duplication.  Footers from
list.  Message-id munging. That kind of stuff.  Some other variety of
signals.
