How to mark as spam? #39

Open paulleader opened 9 years ago

I don't know if I'm just being really thick (entirely possible), but I can't see an option to mark the mail as spam when I create the filter :/

I can delete them, and set the canned response, but not mark as spam.

Obviously filtering them out goes a long was to dealing with my personal problem of spammy recruiters, but it would be nice to actually mark them as spam for the benefit of everyone else :)

I wonder if this feature has been removed from the canned response thing, pretty sure it used to be possible.

Seems like it. I did a bit of googling and the rationale appears to be that marking things as spam affects all google users, therefore it's not something they want to encourage.

I can see the logic, bit still a bit annoying.

As a standin I've created a "Recruiter Spam" tag and will just go in there from time to time and mark them all as spam.

Thanks for the list, running it over old emails pulled out hundreds of emails, seems pretty accurate :)

Seems like a good compromise. Glad you're finding it useful!

Yeah, if I didn't know what a bunch of chancers they all were I'd almost take it as a complement :/

They've started spamming our entire company (we're small) trying to pimp people, it's getting so tedious.
