Afaik, "they" is sometimes used for the neutral gender but it is not common and sounds weird :)

I'm sorry. I was trying to add the list's email address to my
contacts on gmail in order to avoid it going to the spam folder, and I ended up clicking on the wrong button.
I already told it on the other thread: bad email provider, change email provider. ;)
Ironically enough, the "invitation" message to the list went to my
spam folder, and I didn't notice it was actually sent (I too was hoping for some sort of automatic blocker)... So I'd like to thank you for writing back about the error, allowing me to apologize. Indeed, I doubt these automatic invitations can be of any use other than annoying us.
Ok.
On another note, I'm a bit surprised to see that my first name can be
mistaken for a male.
Mere mortals like me don't know every cultural behaviours on naming conventions. Unfortunately, as far as I know English doesn't provide a neutral gender (actualy, I'm not aware of any language which provide a single word to mean "he, she, transgenre, or whatever category a human may fall into").
Thanks again,
Juliana

Couldn't we do something to avoid this kind of ads on lists?
Did someone contacted Juliana Bastos to inform him that he/she should not use lists for that kind of message?
