My spam filterer is MX Logic (now McAfee), for what it's worth.

I have no preference in principle. I'm just looking for some way to configure 
MX Logic to not treat Rietveld mail as spam.

Roundup messages are never marked as spam, that I've noticed, so I'm not sure 
how "Sender:" vs. "From:" affects MX Logic. Maybe using "Sender:" and "From:" 
like Roundup does causes it to not mark the messages as spam, or maybe Roundup 
messages just look less spammy (fewer links?).

That seems reasonable.

Same.
