OK, the only time I do not see a message in my inbox is if I am the
OP, and then it is only my first message that does not appear.  In
fact I think that as soon as at least one reply is received then even
my original appears.  The whole conversation is available both in my
inbox and in Sent.

A couple of thoughts.  I have Conversation View enabled, so the whole
thread is seen in a block.  Perhaps that is a factor.  Also I am
applying a label via a filter, I could imagine this making a
difference as the message coming back will have the label applied.  I
have a filter on Ubuntu in the 'to' field and apply a label "Ubuntu",
though I don't suppose the details of the filter and label are
significant.

I understand now why people are bothered by this if *none* of their
list messages appear.
