It's probably happening because SpamAssasin (running on qth.net) detects
you are sending the messages "rapid-fire" even though you may be sending
to one group at a time. In other words you may have to put a delay of
minutes or even hours to avoid this. I wrote a Perl script once that did
this to avoid being detected as spam (for a legitimate purpose). Or you
may be failing anyone of a hundreds of validation points.
