There is a suggestion that google are placing more and more stringent requirements on email senders in order to push users onto a small number of providers such as google themselves and make it more difficult to run your own mailservers.
I did see a number of mails from mailing lists in the spam folder, and marked them 'not spam'. I'm not seeing many at the moment, just a lot of 'offers' which very clearly ARE spam. If you see non-spam there, look to see where it's come from.
