    I'm a little concerned about the complaints about messages ending up in 
someone's SPAM folder.  Isn't this an end user issue?  I would think it's 
the end user's responsibility to ensure that mailing lists or users are 
whitelisted.  The mailing list doesn't make SPAM judgements; it's the 
email client on the other end, or sometimes the ISP's SMTP server.  If 
it's the ISP SMTP server doing the SPAM rating, don't they leave the 
decision to the end user of what to do with it?  At our university, the 
SMTP server attaches X-???-Spam-Hits and X-???-Spam-Flag headers, but it's 
up to the user whether they want to use them or not.
