Wendy, I agree,
I am always surprised how much GOOD mail is getting thrown into my SPAM folder. (DMARC related....arrggg) I just now found mail from 4 days ago that I thought the person had ignored me.... But I wouldn't recommend using a gmail email address for Lists... I use Gmail and its great, but the gmail based addresses do not display your replys or your own emails in SOME lists. I prefer to see my own email show up in the list along with others messages. But that is my own preference.
