I use this[1] rule in Gmail to archive and direct all fedora-list 
traffic to a Fedora label within Gmail. And I rarely get any of his 
messages mislabelled as spam. It is definitely quite a bit better since 
I reported a few "this is not spam"-s.

I think you can also setup something like `from:"Timothy Murphy"' to 
direct his messages to the proper label in Gmail.
