The default for new subscriptions to GNU's lists indeed seems to be
that if the receiver is in the list of recipients (`To:', etc.), then
the copy via the list is not sent and the one message that you receive
does not have the usual `List-ID:', etc. headers.

I also found this irritating when I recently re-subscribed to some
lists.

It can be configured somewhere below
