List mailing is being treated as junk mail

(As this is a matter of potential general interest, I am copying my reply to 
the list.)

I didn't send this message to you as an individual, and as a matter of fact 
I did not recognize your name. I sent it to the sign language linguistics 
list, which apparently retains the name of the original sender when 
distributing postings. (I don't normally see that characteristic because I 
subscribe to the list in digest format.)

You will have to configure your email to recognize mail with the address 
line
	To: "Sign Language Linguistics List" 
<slling-l at majordomo.valenciacc.edu>
 as not being junk mail.

Alternatively, you may be able to have the list mail sent to you as coming
	From:  "Sign Language Linguistics List" 
<slling-l at majordomo.valenciacc.edu>
 instead of from the individual sender. Or perhaps that is something to take 
up for the entire list with its maintainers.
