Rumor has it that 'Computer Collector Newsletter' may have mentioned these 
words:
>Lately, a bunch of my cctalk messages got into my spam folder.

>That never used to happen, and I didn't make any changes locally.

I really don't want to sound like a jerk, but that's about as useful as 
saying "My car was running fine right up until it quit. Why?"

>Anyone have some insight?  Jay?

We might if you actually gave us some useful information, like:

1) What email client are you using, and what version thereof?
         a) ThunderChicken
         b) OutHouse/LookOut Express
         c) Mutt
         d) Eudora
         e) Other

2) What spam filter(s) are you using, and what version thereof?
         a) ThunderChicken
         b) SpamAssassin
         c) Other

3) What rulesets/scores are setting off the "spam-alarm?" These could be 
found either in extra headers of the message, or in logfiles, depending on 
your setup.

This info would give those of us who route mail for a living a *lot* more 
insight as to what's happening and why...

Laterz,
