IMAP is a post-office protocol. It doesn't care what is in your email

Thunderbird plays well with Gmail. So does Mail.app on Macs, though I
find Mail.app slow and I prefer T-bird.
John, just to add to your woes: this email from you and two prior ones
all ended up in the Gmail spam folder. Apparently everyone now regards
Earthlink as a hopeless spam source.
I'm currently using my *Yahoo* account for PDML until I can sort out
Earthlink.
For some reason Gmail seems to route all Yahoo email to the SPAM folder.
That's why I got the Earthlink account instead of just using my existing
Yahoo email.
The explanation I've read says something about Yahoo email failing
Yahoo's own authentication test, which Gmail interprets as being
possible SPAM.
I don't really understand why, but I'm told that if you keep marking
them as "not SPAM" (instead of just reading them in situ or manually
moving them back to your Inbox), Gmail eventually gets the message.
I have a suspicion that Google & Yahoo are deliberately making it harder
to use mailing lists with their email services, hoping you'll get
discouraged and switch over to one of their proprietary "forums".
