Been doing this long enough that I can sense right away if people aren't getting my emails. It's not great to call people up and ask if they got an email, and admit that my mail might not be getting through today, but it's not terrible. Gives me a chance to touch base with them for a minute, since I was emailing them anyway.

Having people whitelist you on google / yahoo / msn because you explicitly ask them to does have a wider effect, as far as I can tell, of keeping your emails in the clear for everyone else.
