PS Below is the Gmail explanation about how to "report" an email as spam or to reverse that. So – I'm wondering if I move an email that is spam to my Junk folder on Mail, does Gmail learn that that is spam? And does that register a complaint against the company that is sending that email?Īlso, I am looking at the advanced settings for Mail on my iPhone and don't see any spam settings there. I do not have any spam filtering configured in Mail and there are emails in Junk and they correspond with the email s in "Spam" on Gmail online. Everything works great except my primary gmail. Apple Mail is client for 7 mail accounts, all IMAP, (2 iCloud, 3 gmail, 1 AT&T, 1 bluehost). I have set up my ‘always on’ MacMini with SpamSieve and followed 4.4 Setting Up a Spam Filtering Drone. I believe the folder where that shows up in in "Junk". I am a longtime user of Mac, SpamSieve, and gmail. Based on what it finds, your email spam filter will assign each message with a spam score. Under "Labels" in Gmail IMAP settings, I have Spam checked, so that it will show up in a folder in Mail. Spam filtering software scans the sender’s address, subject line, attachments, and body of the email to determine if a message is safe or suspicious. If that is, in fact, the case, I was wondering how I could put email in a spam folder from within Apple Mail. I'm just not sure if it simply prevents them from making it to your Inbox in the future, or if it registers a complaint about spam somewhere. I have been trying to configure gmail in my Apple Mail and have a few issues. Hi Glenn – Thanks for your reply! I think that Gmail allows you to add emails you get to a spam folder and I was told that when you do that, it marks them as spam. How do you get rules and specifically SpamSieve to work with GMail IMAP. I finally got it dialed in pretty well, but I would like to easily mark email to be caught by GMail's spam filter so it doesn't even arrive in my InBox.ġ) Is there a quick and easy way to do that from within the Mail program? (I know you can do that if you're reading Gmail online from their interface in a browser.) Would that email end up in an Apple Mail junk filter or would it stop before it's ever downloaded to Mail?Ģ) If it's something I signed up for or an organization I don't dislike, I don't want my marking it as spam to be a black mark against them, so for those, perhaps I should unsubscribe, even though that takes a while, right?ģ) I used to use Spam Sieve, but a) I want a spam filter that will catch email not only before it reaches the InBox on my Mac, but also on my iPhone and b) if Gmail has this service anyway, I might as well take advantage of that without adding another layer of software to my computer. I switched a little while back to Gmail for my email service.
