Not a Gmail account (personal or institutional), and I had already checked my spam folder. I've seen the same issue as you describe with certain senders on LOPSA lists, and had set up some whitelisting for them accordingly, but have never had anything from the @lopsa.org addresses flagged as spammy or be filtered.
If you check recent list archives, you'll find I'm not the only one who hasn't consistently received membership expiration notices. For that one, at least, you can know you didn't receive it. For most anything else, the only way you know you didn't receive it is if someone shares it via another channel as Evan did in this case. (Even with LOSPAGrams, you can't readily know whether you didn't receive it or there simply wasn't one. I haven't received an August LOPSAGram... it seems there was one, but I can only find it on lopsa.org via the site search bar, not via any navigation efforts.) =Dave On 08/17/2015 03:36 PM, Adam Levin wrote: > I had to specifically tell Google to whitelist the LOPSA mailing lists. > Several contributors were consistently going into the spam folder.
