-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Bruce, Many big ISPs will see the first hop in the headers as a dynamic IP address and either reject the mail, or mark it as very likely to be spam. Policy is different from each ISP, but this mail is being sent from an open wireless network, over SSL with TLS to my mailserver at home which is on an IP in a dynamic range, so if this ends up in your spam folder (or doesn't arrive at all) at your private address my guess would be it's using dynamic IP that's causing the problem.
