That could be.  I disabled spam protection on the Google end and I never
have problems with messages from other sites.  As far as I can recall,
the only time I've had bounced messages is from a Gentoo mailing list. 
Anyway, after trying to get missed messages a few times, I finally
figured out it was a waste of time.  I'd like to have them but if I
can't get them, well, no point trying.  It could be the OP is running
into the same problem I have in the past, whatever that problems is.  I
might add, I don't recall seeing anything that leads me to believe I
actually missed any messages.  I tent to follow most threads and I don't
recall ever seeing a quoted message that I don't have the original of. 
The only exception is one person who I have blacklisted.  Those I never
get. 

It's odd in my opinion.  Maybe someone will figure it out.
