Thanks for responding Sam. Just needed to know that I was not going loopy or something. I interpret your post to mean that it has been working for you? Aside from that, no need to talk about it I guess? Hally - Original Message - From: "Bogi" To: "CLUG General" Sent: Friday, April

I did have a point where it seemed like I wasn't getting messages...but only from certain people like Gustin. It turned out they were going to my Spam folder for some reason...despite me labelling them as Not Spam. I eventually set up a rule that would have those people go to the proper folder.

This problem was a direct result of my anti-spam measures (primarily DMARC), and email providers who actually verify inbound messages. Gmail is one of those providers. I have since relaxed my DMARC settings since this was impacting my communications on other lists and a couple of vendors. Too mu
