Anybody working on a solution to the mailing list problems (a.k.a JDK-8213225)?

[Mario Torre]

I’m having similar issues with my @gmail account FWIW. Most messages land
in spam, even when I instructed gmail they are legit.

I don’t know if I also miss any though because of course I would have not
received them ;)

Cheers,
Mario
