[TowerTalk] Messages end up in Spam Folder

All of these work-around methods are fine but the root problem is 
between Contesting.com and Yahoo.  These problems do not exist with any 
other list server I use, ham radio or otherwise.  There should be no 
fundamental need to use a certain e-mail program or to have to set up an 
array of special filters.
