Yeah, that's the typical "dead loop" problem of mistaken spam
classifications. Your mail gets mistakenly classified as spam, so the
recipient doesn't see it in inbox and doesn't know the mail has arrived
(most users NEVER look in spam folder unless explicitly told to), so never
pulls it out of spam folder to give the "non-spam" signal to the spam
filter. The message gets auto-deleted after some time, which for the spam
filter confirms that it was actually spam. So with your next messages, the
filter tends even more to classify them as spam (as it got "confirmation"
that the previous message was "actually" spam). Thus you are falling into a
pit that is almost impossible to get out of without manual intervention on
the receiving system.
