As per usual I find the issue AFTER I send in the e-mail for help.  Turns out my ISP webmail client had a setting that ignored the safe sender list unless the bypass was checked off.  So now I can at least get messages and advise others on what to look for to resolve if they run into similar issues.

I would still be interested in seeing and documentation on a known good list configuration to ensure there isn't anything that makes e-mails more susceptible to spam filters. 

I'm still noodling around with set up, but at least my immediate issues appear to be resolved.

Thanks,

Rabin

This is the first Mailman list I've set up, but since I've already gone live I'm struggling to find a solution so I figured I better reach out...
