Here is the recruiter / hr version:
You left the company.  Even though you left on good terms, gave notice, you still left the company.  Two years is a long time, our company has changed. (Answering the question about retained knowledge)  Your loyalty to the company is questioned, it won't be directly, but the subtext is there.
I am not saying don't apply, definitely apply.  I wouldn't expect to be ahead in the que though.  I personally believe the old saying "you can't go home".
In the US it's not unusual for a company to have a no re-hire policy.
