7.4 How do I stop or start getting copies of my own posts? (myposts
60
By default in Mailman, you get a copy of every post you send to the list.
61
Some people like this since it lets them know when the post has gone through
62
and means they have a copy of their own words with the rest of a discussion,

You may also want to see Section <A HREF="node24.html#sec:getack">7.5</A>, which discusses

To set this using the web interface:
77
<LI>Log in to your member options page. (See Section <A HREF="node9.html#sec:web">3.1</A>
78
for more details on how to do this.)
80
<LI>Look for the section marked ``Receive your own posts to the list?''

To set this using the email interface:
90
<LI>Send a mail to <span class="email">LISTNAME-request@DOMAIN</span> with the command
91
<var>set myposts on</var> or <var>set myposts off</var>.
95
in either the body or the subject of the message. (See
96
Section <A HREF="node10.html#sec:email">3.2</A> for more information about sending mail
99
<LI>Set it to ``on'' to receive copies of your own posts, and ``off''
100
to avoid receiving them.
