Yes, they consider it a feature to reduce clutter in your inbox.  It's
why I don't use gmail for mailing lists.  They seem to have, as far as I
can tell, simply ignored the MANY requests for it to be an option,
rather than a "feature" that you can't turn off at will. 

There may be some way around it, if you only use their web interface,
with labels--I vaguely remember a friend from a BSD list and I trying
something, but he was using webmail.

Buffy: Oh, look at my poor neck... all bare and tender and 
exposed. All that blood, just pumping away. 
Giles: Oh, please. 
Spike: Giles, make her stop! 
Giles: If those two don't kill each other, I might lend a hand.
