Google Explains Gmail’s Spam Filtering Process - allsupwhady1948

For those who have always wondered why much e-mails arrive in Gmail's spam pamphlet, Google has updated the service to explain to what determines that spam is spam.

Ela Czajka, a coder with the Gmail team, blogged about the new feature and its various levels of detection. Starting now, when you click on a message in Gmail's spam folder, an instructive note appears at the top, warning of wary hyperlinks, reminding you that you have previously scarred a sender A a spammer, OR denoting that a particular e-mail has been deemed shady by the filter itself.

Czajka likewise enclosed a connec to Gmail's recently updated Hub of Spam, where all things spam are explained — such as what phishing scams are, how Gmail uses content filters and the behavior of other Gmail users to label spam, and many. Gmail's labeling practices are pretty exciting, and are a perfect match with the Gmail setting "Assay-mark icon for verified senders," which can be enabled in Gmail Labs and adds a little key next to a substantiated sender's name, guaranteeing the electronic mail is coming from a legit source.

If you'Ra like me and plainly stumble "delete forever" on every spam message, or just disregard the folder wholly, this tiny improvement may not mean untold, only IT's good to know that should you suddenly get on naive and your PC is hectic with malware, Gmail has got your back.
