I don't own the owner of the spamfilter and I don't have access to the rulebase.  Unless I want to complain to the powers that be, I'll just live with it.

I've only seen one post from John (jlap<something>@yahoo.com>)
in January, and the last post I have before that was on 11Dec
last year. I have bunches of posts from him last year.

Can you send me your spamfilter rules so that I can check them
against John's headers? And I need some current headers from
one of John's letters that got bounced or sidetracked into a 
"probably spam" folder.

You may have to "whitelist" him; if you don't own the spamfilter
and/or the firewall, then you may have to talk the owner into 
"whitelisting" him. But I'd like to look at the rules and the
headers from John's current letters first. 

Now, is the spamtrap that's catching him _at_the_listserver_, or
is your workplace spamtrap bouncing mail from John that comes to 
you from the listserver? It's important to know.

John, don't give up hope. This is just another engineering deal,
and we'll tinker with it until it runs right.
