This also mirrors my experience, as I host my own email and it's solely for me. At one point, I couldn't successfully send any email to gmail, but then it changed for some reason and simply gets sent to spam folders instead. Perhaps it's entirely related to some people emailing me first that it gets through at all.
I don't send much mail to gmail, though. Sans that, my only issue has been a mail server that uses Reverse DNS, which I don't have set up, and entirely ignores my email without it.
I suppose I can understand this if some people get a great deal of spam, but requiring so much of this on an unencrypted message seems more like useless reassurances than anything. I'm not criticizing email for being unencrypted, but this seems more like another hoop to jump through than anything.
Also of note, almost all of the spam I receive is from gmail addresses and I wouldn't be surprised if the invalid addresses that send messages demanding bitcoin are also from gmail, but with fake From fields.
