Therefore there is nothing wrong with the user's address or ISP. The problem exists with hundreds of users, (but not all).
What ISP's are affected? ISP's and on-line mail systems like HotMail
and Yahoo are all adding and changing systems to deal with spam, and Mailman list mail will get flagged as spam by many of these systems. I know that by default both HotMail and Yahoo will direct list mail to the bulk or junk folder. To make matters worse Yahoo's system has a bad habit of "forgetting" that a list has been identified as wanted mail. As far as I know all major systems will not block of move something like a password reminder, so have the users request such a reminder from any list they do not get mail from. If they get that, it's probably a spam blocking issue. For Yahoo the best bet is to set up a filter rather than using their spam marking system. Users who belong to more than one of your lists can set up to receive anything from your server and be done with it.

Any... And all. Including my own server!
I.e. all my lists are xxxx@british-genealogy.com
I am subscribed using rkpn@british-genealogy.com Even *I* receive mail from some of the lists and not from others!
The same scenario appears with users of just about any ISP
Therefore it is not a spam filtering issue :-(
