Messages you send to the list also appear under the Sent Mail 
folder/directory.  As Richard says once there is a reply they also appear in 
the Inbox and in all cases they appear under the filters.  What Gmail is not 
particularly clever is creating threads (conversations in Gmail speak).  It 
interprets the headers differently to a newsreader so messages will appear 
under different conversations when in a conventional newsreader they would 
not.
