I don't POP my messages but I do seem to recall that when I'd send a
new message to the list I wouldn't see it even though it hit the list.
 My replies get sorted in the gmail thread no problem.

You'll truly appreciate that part of gmail.  Threads in mailing lists
are much easier to follow in gmail online.  When you POP it then it's
however your mail application sorts it.  Check it out online and see
how easy it is to follow a thread from start to finish and how gmail
hides quoted text unless you click on "Show quoted text"

No.  When I set up someone with Thunderbird & POP access to their
gmail and then sent a message to themselves to test it and it worked
fine.
