Gmail Spam Warning on Groups IO messages
|
Ian,
?
I'm recently getting these warnings on my posts: ?
Yeah, Gmail sees the message From you but via some other service. Nothing to worry about when you recognize it as your own list posting.
?
How can I prevent them occurring? ?
I don't think there's any direct remedy. Apart from not receiving your own messages, as Annette suggested. That's a non-starter for me.?
As Gerald suggested I suspect that clicking on the Looks safe link will tell Gmail that such messages are "ok". At least I hope that feeds into a learning algorithm. I've only seen this twice so far (I normally read via Thunderbird, and of course the warning does not appear there).
?
Just in case I reported it to support so that Mark will be aware, if he wasn't already. I don't know if there's anything Groups.io can do on their end to reassure Gmail. My understanding is that Groups.io already does everything it can to assure email receivers that its messages are ok.

Thank you all for the replies. Yes, clicking "Looks Safe" removes it, but getting a lurid orange banner on every one of my posts is somewhat annoying. And, as Shall says, with Gmail not receiving one's own messages is a non-starter. ______________________________________________________ ? tessel.bas@...

Tom, Funny, but I just got a digest from this group and it was labeled as a scam in Thunderbird. I see that warning on list messages from time to time, I don't recall if I've seen it with anything from Groups.io though. What does Thunderbird use to make this determination? Anyone know? It probably has to do with the nature of the links, either in the Digest structure or in one or more of the contained messages. See for more information.

It looks like Mark has a work-around, so you shouldn't see this any more,

Hmph.

Thus far I've been very happy (as a Gmail user) that they have chosen to accept messages that pass through mailing lists with intact From addresses, using their own Spam detection to override the sending service's DMARC policy. A consequence of Mark's work-around, I no longer see my posts as From "me", they are now from someone named "Shal Farley via Groups.Io", but I suppose that's better than a big yellow warning banner. The threat is that something like this might go into effect for messages posted by other users of Gmail, or messages via Groups.io generally. I would rue that because the work-around mangling of From addresses makes it more inconvenient to copy paste the sender's address if I want to reply privately by email.
