Dear Cygwin,
A little supposition here, but it appears that the recent posting
from Viverra Inc. contained a malicious attachment, as detected by
my company's e-mail malware detection as it intercepted the recent
digest. I need now to appeal to them to allow me to continue
receiving e-mail from you. Cygwin has provided me invaluable tools
to do my software development work, so I hope this matter is
resolved promptly with my company. Meanwhile I ask that you review
your spam detection to minimize impact on me and others in my
situation.
--Ken Nellis
In general, I suggest you to not use the company's e-mail
for mailing lists.
The spam detection is never 100% accurate, something
will always pass through and something will be falsely detected.
My company's spammer filter sometimes report internal
automatic mails as spam and don't catch real spam.
Regards
Marco
