Well, I already started looking at this on gmail a few weeks ago, and
yes, I couldn't find anyone, just vague support articles.

Looking again now though I see a new thing in their support sections,
DMARC, which I had not heard of before.

Thanks, I will be rooting around and trying any/every thing I can find
from the list and other sources.

As a bit of an update it *might* be the case for gmail that after having
4-6 friends unmark messages from the domain as spam other people who
have never seen the domain in the inbox are getting delivered directly
now...which is nice...I will keep the list up to date if I find anything
interesting.

Nigel
