sent an email that got marked as spam
I sent someone an email (from fastmail) and it somehow ended up in her spam folder. I'd earlier exchanged some email with the same person without problems. These were plain text emails about computer stuff, not imported pills or anything like that. Could one of FM's IP addresses have gotten dirty or something? I'm not sure whether to open a ticket, or just not worry about it unless it happens again.

It's very difficult to give a good response without more information. Fastmail uses 5 outgoing email servers at this time with these IP addresses. All of these addresses look good (no IP blocks) at this time (using http://mxtoolbox.com/SuperTool.aspx#):
Code:
Received: from out5-smtp.messagingengine.com (out5-smtp.messagingengine.com. [66.111.4.29]) by mx.google.com with ESMTPS id 133si25969527qkf.329.2016.11.25.09.59.04 for <bill.****@gmail.com> (version=TLS1_2 cipher=ECDHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256 bits=128/128); Fri, 25 Nov 2016 09:59:04 -0800 (PST) Was the email sent directly to her final delivery address, or was it in some way redirected or forwarded? Forwarding can reduce the accuracy of spam filters and cause blocking in some cases. It's also possible that she accidentally or purposefully marked a previous message from you (or with a similar subject or message body) as spam, or some filter did this at her email provider or her email client.
