Hi, Nadja.  I hope the list doesn't mind if I recycle this advice, as
it is probably a common problem.

Sure, Dave.  I thought perhaps I was the only one with this problem.

It seems that by default a sender does not receive a copy of posts
made to the list.  This apparently presumes the sender keeps a copy
of the outgoing message and doesn't need or want another one.  

To get a copy of your own posts back as they are circulated to the
list, send a message like this to the server (that is, to
LISTSERV at LINGUIST.LDC.UPENN.EDU, not CHINOOK@ or SALISHAN@):

SET CHINOOK REP

Put that in the text (body of the message).  The subject line is
unimportant and may be left blank.  Substitute SALISHAN for CHINOOK
as appropriate.

Regards,

Jeff
