Here's some headers from a recent email sent to me:

Received-SPF: neutral (google.com: 2a01:4f8:131:2480::3 is neither permitted 
nor denied by best guess record for domain of 
roundup-ad...@psf.upfronthosting.co.za) client-ip=2a01:4f8:131:2480::3;
Authentication-Results: mx.google.com;
       spf=neutral (google.com: 2a01:4f8:131:2480::3 is neither permitted nor 
denied by best guess record for domain of 
roundup-ad...@psf.upfronthosting.co.za) 
smtp.mailfrom=roundup-ad...@psf.upfronthosting.co.za;
       dmarc=fail (p=NONE dis=NONE) header.from=python.org

As you can see, "dmarc=fail". (though, I can't seem to see a DMARC policy on 
any of the pertinent dns records)

Another email from the tracker that was in my spam box said:

"Why is this message in Spam? It's in violation of Google's recommended email 
sender guidelines."  And linked to 
https://support.google.com/mail/answer/81126?hl=en-GB#authentication

A DMARC policy should really be added and DKIM signing should also be added.  
Lately, major email providers have been clamping down to try to prevent spam by 
nearly requiring those things.
