Re: Group Members Marking Group Messages As Spam

Re: Group Members Marking Group Messages As Spam
Louise, Interesting. Does the brown type have a documented meaning. Is that, for example, the color of all the messages in your Spam folder? That's too bad. I think you're right that there are some,

Re: Group Members Marking Group Messages As Spam
James, The problem may seem simple if you only take it that far. However there is a key point of this discussion that is missing here. And that is the disposition of messages that land automatically

Re: Group Members Marking Group Messages As Spam
These people (who marked group messages as spam more than twice) hurt entire groups.io email reputation, they are the main cause why email services put messages from groups.io into the Spam folder or

Re: Group Members Marking Group Messages As Spam
I am new to Groups.IO but have operated lists on many services over the last twenty-five years. I would like to offer a couple of additional thoughts on this subject because I believe the problem is

Re: Group Members Marking Group Messages As Spam
Xaun Loc, That's true. Nor can it tell us which may be using a mobile interface, which in some respects may be more like a desktop email client than like the service's web interface. Same here, except

Re: Group Members Marking Group Messages As Spam
That's great information. Unfortunately, at least for this discussion, one of the things it CAN'T tell us is how many of the users on those large services are using webmail and how many are using

Hi, tried to bring this up with mark on the beta, but either it did not get through, or he does not want to deal with it. I changed providers and now with my republic http://www.myrepublic.com.au, and

Re: Group Members Marking Group Messages As Spam
Apples have email programs that allow you to train the Junk mail to automatically move messages from someone or containing certain words to the junk folder. The rules for doing this can be quite

Re: Group Members Marking Group Messages As Spam
Re gmail's spam filter, it has reliably put almost all of my messages from one mailing list that I'm very interested in into spam, despite my constantly marking them "not spam." So the description

Re: Group Members Marking Group Messages As Spam
Jeff, Thanks again! Um, ok. Taking the two together, I can compute the percentage of users of each service who've been removed for marking messages as spam: 41.7% msn.com 25.5% aol.com 8.3%

Re: Group Members Marking Group Messages As Spam
Brian, I agree if the target "we" is all of Groups.io, meaning that I don't think the service needs to provide that level of Email 101 tutorial. Nor would I necessarily list that as a "best practice"

Re: Group Members Marking Group Messages As Spam
Louise, My basic contention is that if users are educated about the availability of a mark/unmark as spam feature and whitelisting in general terms, and what those are about, that would be sufficient.

Re: Group Members Marking Group Messages As Spam
I am not able to tell from your email, Brian, as I received it on my iPhone, which part quotes Shal and where your message begins. Not sure whether that is the fault of my iPhone but I am not sure

Re: Group Members Marking Group Messages As Spam
Jeff, Thanks for sharing that research! You've turned up some interesting results, and with a group as large as yours the statistics should be more broadly applicable than what I could learn from any

Re: Group Members Marking Group Messages As Spam
I have to say that I can only partially agree with this, as I don't think what an end user needs to know has much of anything to do with what's going on "under the hood." Most e-mail clients and web

Re: Group Members Marking Group Messages As Spam
J, Brian, I think the issue is what the users need to be educated about. And that varies with the email service they're using as well as the interface they use to access that service. Desktop web
