    While those would indeed help, whitelisting the address that sent the notification email could also work, and would require a lot less coding.

    Yeah I have now put in an explicit filter to prevent messages from that address being classified as spam.

    Normally hitting the "Report as not spam" button once is enough for me, but for SN for some reason it's been a recurring thing.
