GMail and SPAM trap

All,

I have noticed that many of the Great Loop Emails have been getting put into
the SPAM box by Google's Spam trap.  I was having this issue with too
aggressive of a Spam Trap and Gmail on another list; clicking the 'Not Spam'
did not do anything.  But I did find a fix, here is what I think will work
for the GL list:

  1. Log into your Gmail account via the web.
  2. Make sure you are in the 'normal' view, not the low-bandwidth HTML view.
  3. Click on that wheel on the right, and select 'settings'.
  4. Select the Filters tab.
  5. Click 'create new filter'
  6. Place in the 'From' box: "great-loop-bounces@lists.trawlering.com"
  7. Press 'Create Filter with this Search'
  8. Check the 'Never Send to Spam' box
  9. Click 'Create Filter' bottom.

The key will be getting the right thing in step 6, given the latest change
to the list I think I have it right; I just added this filter - will see how
it works out.  (It might also be possible to use something like
"@lists.trawlering.com" for the key and pick up all the trawlering.com based
Email lists, but I have not tried that..  I just add one filet per Email
list.)
