Hi Sumantra,
You'll still have the copy in your sent folder, and you'll
receive a note when it's posted, but the list
automatically (without any option for me to change it)
does not send a copy of your own message to you -- that
said, it will still be in the digest form and in the
archive, so you can be sure it was sent. It's for all
messages going forward, not retroactively.
For you (and anyone else with interest), the listserv
archive is accessible through the ILDS website:
http://www.lawrencedurrell.org
Just look to the right side vertical bar area.
All best,
James
