SoftLayer considered spam by Google

//If you are a  #SoftLayer client, be sure to check your #junk folder often as #Gmail is now considering it as a source of #spam . This is probably a recent development as I never had this problem before. As a result all mails from Softlayer of the last 10 days have ended up in my junk folder.

The error has since been caught and corrected... More at http://bit.ly/wmkGWF
