The only message I noticed missing was from one person. Since they are coming from one person, that is the cause. If the messages was from more than one person, then maybe there could be another conclusion. >> Basically his emails trigger the spam alarm and it gets marked before >> or upon receipt by gmail.

Sad to say but mailing lists are not as popular it seems as they once was and one could wonder if some of this is designed to make it harder for mailing lists to stay active. While Alan's messages in the past were sort of spam-ish, it's not really something that should be marked that way. They shoulod get through and if the list maintainers think his messages should be rejected for some reason, then they should be dealt with on the Gentoo end of things. Either way, at least we know it isn't that some Gentoo server is having a problem. That was my main concern. Dale :-) :-)
