Not seeing my own posts

[Grizzly]

Hi all (or maybe just an admin)

I've set both 

"Receive your own posts to the list?"
and
"Receive acknowledgement mail when you send mail to the list?"

to "YES" via the web gui

but so far (many years I guess) neither seem to work, I don't post often, but 
would like to see that my posts have arrived (ISP's and email being what it 
is), and not have to just wait to see "if" a reply appears (some times much 
later)
