I think it is exactly that, whenever I am also CC:ed , while message is 
sent to the list,
on Gmail I do not receive filtered message to the List folder,because I 
suppose Gmail deletes "bounced" messages or messages that actually the 
same (or looks the same) like one ending up in Inbox.

So it is GMail's problem and I need to copy/move messages to the mailing 
list folder manually if they were CC:ed to me and both sent to Mailing 
list. Therefore the confusion with messages not having "List-id:"
Google Mail kills messages to mailing list if they are same as those CC:'ed.

Therefore, avoid CC'ing messages to Gmail users and send to the list 
instead.
If wanting to talk directly, send same message to the person instead.
Google Mail is stupid, intrusive and against regular mail behavior.

It's better to have it's own mail address and mail server, but it needs 
some resources to maintain it.
