I need to know how to keep gmail/ or maybe my own mailing list setting,
from filtering out replys to posting on debian user and other debian
lists.
    

For this, I usually define a filter in the Gmail webui, to label
mailing-list incoming or outgoing posts. 

In the present case, in the 'Has the words' field, I entered:

"list:debian-user.lists.debian.org OR to:debian-user@lists.debian.org"

Then I checked the "Apply the label" option, with a "debian-user" label.


This way, when I receive or send messages from/to the list, they are
_all_ labelled as "debian-user", including the one stored in "Sent
Mail". This works well, for me at least.

Hope this helps,

I found this reply really helpful, because this is an issue I've had for a while now and have resorted to manually moving the sent message to the proper folder.

Hopefully this will now do what it says on the tin and I should get my own mail showing up as well.


But, thanks!!
