I have found that our corporate mail server rejects email sent from me 
(m...@company.com) that arrives at our SMTP server under the impression that 
mail from m...@company.com should not originate from outside the company.  When 
I send email to the list, the list is processed, in effect, as a big mail 
alias, which then gets resent back to me.  Thus, it considers my posting as a 
forged email when it arrives here.  I don't have the problem with all lists, so 
maybe some of them rewrite the from/envelope/return-address/whatever in the 
distribution process, and so they are not rejected.

Google might be doing the same thing.

I ended up turning on "send me acks" for those lists that do this.
