The Secretariat gave their usual quick response (I just wasn't able to
respond here as quickly): it seems that there's a .co.uk domain name
used as an example in the charter text, that domain name is on a spam
block list, and that caused a high spam score.

That particular domain name has had its spamminess score reduced, so
the problem should stop (though I'm not trusting it here, obviously).
I've suggested that this represents a faulty spam rule: a blacklisted
domain name in an address field should cause a high spam score, but it
shouldn't do so when we're talking about the domain in the body of the
message.  I've also asked whether it's possible to get the missing
messages put back into the archive.

Meanwhile, discussions that include that part of the charter text
shouldn't cause a problem any more.  And just in case, it might not be
a bad idea just to redact the domain name in question when you include
the charter text.

More when I know more.
