I'm switching to this email address for posting, because apparently there is some kind of weird problem between yahoo and google such that gmail users see all or most of my messages in their SPAM folder.
If you've asked me something and think that I didn't respond, I recommend looking there.
Just to confirm, all Jimmy's email in these threads were in my Gmail spam folder when I looked.
If you're using Gmail, go look at the spam folder and bring his messages back in...

That is why I asked Jimmy a question yesterday that he had already answered in another thread. I wasn't aware that he had been replying until I saw someone else answer one of his emails.
So yes, everyone using gmail, check your spam folders.
If you are using gmail, Set a rule that *@lists.wikimedia.org never go to the spam folder.
(If you are using rule to label them, it can be done at the same time.)

Perhaps that is the penalty for attempting to compete with search companies.

It's not just Google either. My provider uses Yahoo's service for email, and yet Jimmy's messages to the list, and as best I can tell only Jimmy's from the ymail account, appear to get bounced and never even reach my spam folder, let alone my inbox.

Just to be clear, this is not a list admin issue—Jimmy's ymail address was initially moderated as a new subscriber, but we unmoderated him as soon as he posted from it. The rest is on gmail, unfortunately.
It's also not the first time we've seen it. Others have had issues posting from Yahoo addresses in the past.

Yup. I had the same issue in January with a yahoo address.
Admins (and several users) warned me. I switched to gmail and it works perfectly well now.

A good pointer! It refers to https://yahoomail.tumblr.com/post/82426900353/yahoo-dmarc-policy-change-what...
Listing an option for businesses sending mail where the reply should go to a ymail or yahoo account :
Or you could do:
