Gmail junk mail

The never-ending battle against junk mail in Gmail!

Here are some tips to help you manage and reduce the amount of junk mail in your Gmail inbox:

  1. Use Gmail's built-in filters: Create filters to automatically sort, forward, or delete emails that contain specific keywords, sender addresses, or subjects.
  2. Mark as spam: Click the "Report spam" button on emails that are clearly junk mail. This helps Gmail's algorithms learn to recognize similar emails and block them in the future.
  3. Use Gmail's "Not spam" feature: If an email is incorrectly marked as spam, click the "Not spam" button to let Gmail know that it's actually legitimate.
  4. Unsubscribe from unwanted emails: Look for unsubscribe links at the bottom of junk emails and click them to remove yourself from the sender's mailing list.
  5. Use a third-party spam filter: Consider using a third-party spam filter like SpamAssassin or SpamSieve to help block junk mail.
  6. Use Gmail's "Priority Inbox" feature: Enable Priority Inbox to help Gmail prioritize important emails and move less important ones to a separate tab.
  7. Use Gmail's "Snooze" feature: Snooze emails that you don't have time to deal with immediately, and they'll be moved to a separate tab until you're ready to deal with them.
  8. Use a Gmail add-on: Consider using a Gmail add-on like Sanebox or Boomerang to help manage your inbox and reduce junk mail.
  9. Report phishing emails: If you receive a phishing email, report it to Gmail by clicking the "Report phishing" button.
  10. Keep your Gmail account up to date: Regularly update your Gmail account settings and password to help prevent unauthorized access and reduce the risk of junk mail.

By following these tips, you can help reduce the amount of junk mail in your Gmail inbox and make your email experience more enjoyable!
