Aha, Getting somewhere.
So - when I SEND to the WAMUG list using Mail app and the Bigpond mail servers, then my own message comes back to me via the WAMUG list as I would expect. But when I SEND the same using my default Gmail mail server, I don't get it back. I don't understand why this is the case, but at least I have refined down where the problem may lie and I have a work around - simply select Bigpond server when sending a message to the list.
