Gmail often reports this about Python list messages because they are being sent through Python's mailing list servers but have the From address showing up as the poster's email address. Shows that Google's "my way or the highway" approach to security is problematic when it comes to traditional internet services like listservs. To say nothing of how they break mailing lists by throwing out your own messages to the list. Google products are definitely getting more and more frustrating for us traditional users. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
