Hi!

As mentioned in another thread yesterday, i have setup getmail to
retrieve mails from my gmail id. In my setup, getmail delivers the
mail to procmail, which in turn filters them into different mailboxes,
including a "possible-spam" mailbox depending on certain criteria. Now
all my d-u mails are getting filtered as spam. Following are the rules
in my $HOME/.procmailrc:


:0
* ^X-Spam-Status: Yes
possible-spam/
#
:0
* ^X-Spam-Level: *****
possible-spam/
#
:0
* ^X-Spam-Flag:.*YES
possible-spam/



And following are some lines from $HOME/.procmaillog:

As you can see, only Andrei Popescu's mails, which also had a 'cc' to
my email address, get delivered to the proper mailbox. All other mails
to d-u get filtered as spam. Also Andrei's mails do not have the
mailing list headers whereas the other mails had. So i am assuming
Andrei's mails reached me directly and his mails via d-u were thrown 
out by gmail.

I am also subscribed to some other mailing lists, and those mails are
delivered to the appropriate mailboxes by procmail. (For eg., mutt 
mailing list mails are delivered as desired).

About a year back, i was subscribed to d-u for a short time from my 
workplace account. The filter settings were same, and those mails were 
not labelled as spam. So this might have something to do with gmail. I
don't have much experience with this kind of settings, so any pointers 
as to why this must be happening are appreciated.
