You would only have trouble if you wanted to reply to your OWN
message. Sending a new message and replying to a message sent by
anyone else would be no problem (using whatever mail client you
like).

As bill lam said, this is a very well known problem to do with
your gmail account, and has nothing to do with the system used
for the mailing list. I also have a gmail account, and am
irritated by exactly the same issue both here and on mailman
lists. However, in practice, it is not a problem because I
rarely need to reply to myself.
