[OpenID] mail via openid.net marked as SPAM

Unfortunately, I do get about 2-5 spam false positives a day (and well 
over 200 true positives). So I do apologize if I'm slow with mail, since 
a lot of my legitimate mail does go straight into my spam folder. My 
corporate spam filtering is a black box to me, and I don't have the 
ability to whitelist certain senders.  Messages from OIDF members 
frequently go into my spam folder.

You can always DM me on Twitter. :)
