That's correct behavior if your gnus-level-subscribed is 5 or 6.  Is
it?  You are using 0.98 and emacs 20.4?  (as you do when sending to
the rcp.el list, but the mail-news gateway is chopping your
User-Agent:)

If so, I'll accept the possibility that it's my environment, and
devote hours and hours to hand tracing every line of LISP.

Would you send me a mail privately that's generated by C-c C-b
(`gnus-bug') with the To: address changed to me?  This will allow me
to set my variable state to yours and eliminate that possible cause.
