Thanks Mike,  I took the plunge and made this change and it worked as outlined.
The last warning about getting a load of back messages was true as well but 
that was easy to deal with.
BTW, this fix was not suggested by the Broadband Tech Support that serves my 
provider.  Mitch

  Hi Mitch;

  First let me point out that I do not use GMail.  Below are some notes I have 
saved dealing with the problem you are wanting to fix.  Read all the way 
through just to make sure that everything is right & to see if corrections to 
typing errors have been made.

  Hello Lisa;
  someone told me, if you set up recent mode in your GMailPopAccount, that, 
  you should be able to receive all messages.

  Setting up 'recent mode'

  In your POP client settings replace 
  username@xxxxxxxxx
   or email field with; 
  recent:username@xxxxxxxxx

  not sure how true this is, but it may be worth a try.

  Hi Ann,

  To be able to get, and see the posts you send to the lists you belong to
  with Gmail, do the following:

  Assuming you're using a standard e-mail client like Outlook Express or
  Outlook, open up the tools menu, then arrow down to accounts and press
  enter.

  Once in the dialog box, highlight your Gmail account, and tab to the
  properties button, and press the spacebar.

  In the resulting dialog box, control+tab to the servers page, and tab down
  to the e-mail address edit field.

  In that field, type the word recent with a colon before your e-mail address.

  So, if you're typing this information into your e-mail field, you would type
  in:

  recent:amedlar1@xxxxxxxxx

  Tab down to the apply button, then shift+tab back to the ok button and press
  the spacebar.

  You'll land back on the accounts dialog box, at which point, you tab to the
  close button, then press the spacebar again.

  The next time you send and receive your messages, you'll receive each and
  every message you ever sent via Gmail, so be prepared to get a flood of
  e-mails once you do this.

  Let us know how you do.

  Victor

  Hi Victor,
  In servers page it is account name and not email name.  Email name is in
  general page.  I changed email in general page.
  Good luck to me.  Thanks,
  Ann

  Hope the above notes get you fixed up!  Take care.
  Mike

    Hi,  Is there a fix that would allow me to see messages I send to the list?
    My Internet provider had us transition to a system that uses G-Mail.  I 
have Outlook Express set to Less Secure in the Security Tab and I can see in my 
Sent Messages folder  that messages have been sent to the list but, unlike 
before this transition, I do not now receive a copy from the list of my own 
messages.
    My Tech Support had me check webmail to see if the messages are being 
filtered but that site frustrated me with a visual number requirement and a 
cluttered screen reader procedure so I thought I would quiz the list.
    Thanks, Mitch
