As for the general problem of spam filtering being responsible for the failure of legitimate mail to be delivered, I also object to the "nothing can be done" attitude.
The difficulty comes from the fact that there is currently a real consolidation in email providers to a handful of very large cloud servers run (poorly) by faceless companies that offer no recourse for fixing false positives. It is a commercial decision. This reduction in diversity bodes badly for the future as less and less IT managers are bothering to run their own SMTP servers. A sad future as email was one of the only widespread communication systems used that was not vendor specific.
