Gmail suggestion…
September 13, 2006
Not sure if *any* webmail program has this, but what I’d appreciate is a way to report different types of junk mail. Instead of reporting everything as ’spam’ (which is a good idea), being able to report mail as ‘phishing attempt’ or ‘contains trojan’ (for example) would help the mail provider analyze the types of emails coming through and treat certain types of questionable mail differently. While gmail seems to do an OK job of detecting spam, it’s not great, and seems to be getting worse. I have probably 10000 spams in the spam folder for the last 30 days. That’s around 300 per day. I still get another 20-30 per day that make it through. These share similar characteristics which I report every time, yet they still let it through. When will gmail learn that email containing all chinese text, which I’ve reported as ’spam’ for over a year, is, in fact, something I don’t want to read???
