Yeah, I *hate* it when important mail to me gets sucked up in spam
filters :(.  So I try to do what I can to keep nmap-dev and
nmap-hackers list mail going through to people.  There is not much I
can do if you filter hates Lua or the like, but anyone finds that
nmap-dev or nmap-hackers mail is being disadvantaged by your provider
for reasons that I can control, let me know.  An example would be if
you notice that the mail server (mail.titan.net, 64.13.134.2) is in
some sort of blacklist.  I could then contact the blacklist
maintainers to get that fixed.  Or if your anti-spam software has a
problem with our SPF records or DNS configuration or something, let me
know.  You never know what sort of strange technical configurations
anti-spam software will doc you for.

As for a better hosting provider, I can't help you with that.  One of
my hosting providers (Dreamhost) accidentally overcharged customers
millions of dollars earlier this year and then made a big joke of
it--complete with Homer Simpson picture
(http://blog.dreamhost.com/2008/01/15/um-whoops/).
