And therein lay my big hate about anti-spam software, the false positives. Quite apart from having to double-check on it negates the value of using it, you and and I know we have to do it, the masses do not. They just trust it, and important mail disappears, unseen. I get tired of having to educate them to check their spam folder (which they don't even know exists), and to deliberately mark non-spam mail as being non-spam. Some don't even want to do that, because they're afraid they'll mess up gmail which they think knows what it's doing. Hah! The other trick, that may work, is to add desirable emails to your contact list. -- NB: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted. I will only get to see the messages that are posted to the list.
