Not sure about the rest of you,
But I had one or two go into spam about a month ago. I checked the little "not spam" box and have not had a problem since then. So go ahead and check, and then check every so often (cause you might as well anyways), but the problem should just resolve itself. The sky is not falling...
That is all.

Hello all,
I noticed a marked increase recently in the percentage of emails sent through our list which are filtered into my spam folder. I also received notice that a number of you are experiencing the same. Not sure what we can do about that from an administrative standpoint, so I am strongly encouraging everyone to periodically check your spam folders to review any messages that may have fallen through the cracks.
For a (hopefully) better and more permanent solution on an individual level, consider creating a filter to never send our messages to your spam folder. If you or your organization uses Gmail here are some instructions on how to do such a thing:
In the Gmail web interface, you'll see that this email was sent to "bikeboard@bikemorgantown.com". Next to the "to bikeboard" you'll see a drop down arrow. Click that arrow. At the bottom of the drop down you'll see a hyperlink titled "filter messages from this mailing list". Click the hyperlink. A new pop up that follows allows you to click another hyperlink at the bottom titled "Create Filter with this search". Do that. You'll then see a list of checkboxes. Check the box "Never send it to spam", and then hit the button "create the filter". That should take care of all messages in the future.
This will theoretically open you to some security vulnerability if a person on our list is compromised by a cyber attack. However, seeing as I haven't witnessed this happen once over the past 6 months on this list, I'm betting the chances are slim.
Stay vigilant yet open, Drew
