It seemed (and seems to me) that what I was refuting was exactly what Osamu
was saying happened, which is why I was refuting it. Asuming that I had
misunderstood, the other potential meaning was that if you have replied from
within Gmail, you will not get your post via POP3. That too is incorrect.
If I reply from Gmail itself, e.g. if I am away from home, my email is sent
to me via POP3. It is true that it does not come in with the list mail, but
a copy is sent to me and I just move it into the list folder.
Granted, that doesn't prove that it arrived - but there are always the
archives!
