I can say with certainty that none of my mailing list emails have wound up in any of the 3 spam boxes that they could land in. I have checked them all. As I was mentioning, I have filters set up on all the mailing lists that I care about to not spam/junk any messages on those lists. And those filters have been working reliably for some time now. Which is why I am curious to know what is different between your filtering and mine.
Just guessing, but it may be that you are using POP to retrieve the mail and getting an "uncategorized" view of new messages in the inbox, where if you use IMAP (with the possibility of syncing to multiple systems), gmail's labels are mapped to imap folders before you get them.
