I wonder if this couldn't be something what accidentally happened to me.
Someone could "delete" all their email - including my messages - by moving
it into spam folder (and I know that among the people who I corresponded with
there are at least two people who recently changed email addresses and moved
off of Gmail, so it is possible they deleted all email before deleting the
account) and that's why Google started suddenly classifying my emails as
spam.

Is there any way for the sender to protect against such users' behaviour,
ie. being inadvertently classified as spam?

BTW. did you receive my email with the test messages I sent to Google?

This one, at least, smells like it might be a GDPR risk, at a bare minimum.

English is my first language, and I can confirm that "junk" is a terrible
word to use to refer to UBE.  I have a shed full of what is commonly
referred to as "junk", and not only do I not want to get rid it, I would be
saddened if I never got any more of it (although my wife would, on the
whole, not share that emotion).

I've noticed when using Gmail that I can trash a message, or I can report
it as spam and (sometimes) choose between "report" and "report and
unsubscribe."

But I don't think I can "trash and unsubscribe," and I don't think there's
a way (other than scrolling through the message looking for a unsubscribe
link) to just unsubscribe without reporting as spam.

If that's correct, maybe it helps to explain why people "people still use
report spam as 'I don't want to receive this any more'."

I'd like to see MUAs get smart enough to question what needs to be done 
when people indicate "I don't want to receive this any more".


If the message passes all contemporary hygiene tests and has the RFC 
8058 list-unsubscribe headers, consider asking "Do you want to delete 
this message?  /  Unsubscribe from this (legitimate) mailing list?  / 
Report this message as spam?".

At one point when I was complaining about the Gmail UI for that, I did a
survey, and several competing products used the exact opposite
iconography for spam/trask,
just leading to more user confusion... and us making sure to use something
very different for report spam.  No idea if it helped or not for our
reports, people still use report spam as "I don't want to receive this any

I've always believed that "junk" is too subtle – although English is 
not my first language. I suppose lawyers had a significant say in the 
selection of this term.


I've run into people who are obviously confused between "junk" and 
"trash" folders.

Re: [mailop] Erroneous Hotmail spam/junk JMR email due to recipient error, where's the operator feedback loop?

2019-10-08 Thread Benoit Panizzon via mailop
Hi Chris

I have exactly the same issue.

I have found a hotmail user who made rule to 'save' all emails from a
whole list of 'known friends' sender to the 'junk' folder. Causing an
immediate Spam Complaint from Microsoft every time one of our customers
sends that hotmail user an email.

The hotmail user does not understand what she did wrong.

I had another hotmail user deleting multiple year old emails by moving
them all to the junk folder. Causing us to receive several complaint
sent by one customer that recipient was in contact with one year and
more ago.

Yet another one, reported a work report with full salary detail from
his employer, not aware that Microsoft would forward that sensitive data
to our abuse desk.

And also a nuisance are real spam emails which our users (possibly
after disabling spam filtering on their account with us) forward to
their hotmail account and then report as spam.

I have notified the Microsoft Abuse Desk about those often reoccurring
'false' complaints.
I have notified the sender of those complaints.

No reaction.

The solution would be easy:

1: Define a cut-off date. Don't send reports if a user moves an email
older than say 14 days to the spam folder.

2: If a user moves an email to the spam folder, throw an POP-UP or
something similar to him and make him confirm he does want to report
that emails as spam.

3: Try to make it more obvious in the documentation of that junk
folder, that moving emails there will lead to a complaint to the
senders ISP.

4: Better recognition of forwarded emails: If the origin IP Address of
the reported spam is in the same range as the MX for the original
recipient in the To: Header and the Received: header, and possibly SRS
signed From: header also all hint to a forwarding situation, please
consider the Received: of the forwarder to be trusted and report it to
the ISP of the Received: before that header.

So if anyone on that list has a better connection to Microsoft and
could hint them to those issues, that would be great.

I don't suggest Microsoft should stop reporting spam. It is a great
help. I would say about half of the reports we get are legit and help us
block phished accounts in a timely manner. But some attempts could be
done to lower the ratio of false positives.

Mit freundlichen Grüssen
