The use of DELIVERY_MODULE = 'Sendmail' is highly discouraged as I'm
sure you know if you've made it work. If the only reason you're using
it is because your outgoing MTA requires username/password
authorization, see

I don't think that is correct. All outgoing mail is placed in the out
queue and delivered by OutgoingRunner using DELIVERY_MODULE.

I have noticed however that one of my Yahoo addresses that is
subscribed to a list always finds its password reminders in the 'Bulk'
folder even though list posts are delivered normally.

I suspect Yahoo. Do you have any of the actual bounces or just bounce
log information? If you have an actual bounce, what does it say?
