Well, it had to be one of those two options, and was a brilliant chance
to shove a joke in.  ;-)  An awful lot of mailing problems are down to
how people use their clients (pressing the wrong buttons, filling their
own details into the preferences incorrectly, etc.).

I can't see why it should happen, it hasn't happened here, and I saw
nothing in the posts to suggest a reason why it should.  I am inclined
to believe it's most likely to be another one of those gmail oddities.

Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.  I
read messages from the public lists.
