[alsa-devel] Gmail thinks most alsa-devel mail is spam
Hi,
I use gmail to subscribe to Linux mailing lists, and most of the mail to alsa-devel ends up in the spam folder. According to gmail, the reason is:
"Why is this message in Spam? It is in violation of Google's recommended email sender guidelines."
and then it tell me to look here:
https://support.google.com/mail/answer/81126?hl=en#authentication
Is this something that can be fixed? It's really annoying have to check my spam folder every day to fish out messages from alsa-devel.
Hi Timur, Very interesting. I checked myself, and I get almost all the alsa emails without them going to spam. (I'm using gmail too). However, 2 specifically did end up in spam:
[alsa-devel] [PATCH 0/3] ASoC: dapm: add PGA kcontrol, dai_link enhancement &
and
[alsa-devel] Driver for audio power amplifier ICs?
I updated my filter so it will never go to spam:
In gmail go to
settings->Filters and blocked Addresses->Create New Filter
Subject = [alsa-devel]
Then, "Create Filter With This Search"
Then "Apply The Label" = alsa and tick the box that says, "Never send it to Spam" and the box that says, "Also apply this filter to matching conversations"
That should get you out of the check-spam loop.

All that does is disable the spam filter completely for alsa-devel, which means I'll get more spam. Then I will have to scan my alsa-devel folder to remove actual spam, which is more difficult than fishing out legitimate mail from the spam folder.

Did you actually get any spam related with alsa-devel? It's basically a subscribers-only ML.
