it seems like either you or someone else (which would mean: me (though i
didn't) or Mailman itself) has set your subscribed email-address to
"nomail".
you can still send emails (like you do), but you don't receive emails on
that account. (very useful if you have multiple email-accounts where you
want to send emails from, but you want to receive the list only once)

Mailman sets you account to "nomail" if your address bounces for some
reasons (e.g. your mailserver is down for 2 weeks)

remedy: go the webinterface, log in, and un-check the "no-mail" flag.
