G-mail
« on: April 23, 2020, 11:23:05 PM »
Has anyone noticed that the Spam blocker in G-mail is getting sloppy?
I just received this in my inbox,

After checking the header, I sent it to the spam folder.
This should have been caught.
I've also received lots of emails from "insurance companies" that didn't come from an actual company.

Bob,

Make sure you check your Gmail contact list, sometimes, spam emails can automatically save the email address and unknown name into your Gmail contact list.

So make sure you check them and clean them out, this has happen to me several times.

My contact list is clean. This is just one of several emails missed by the spam filter.
