      What if the spam is coming from the "same location" like a random target store in Texas.

      Thank you! My only concern with this is that I did a search with "unsubscribe" and it selected spam, plus all of my bills and some other important emails (like purchase emails from online stores that I use and need, but don't want multiple marketing emails from). have this word in it.
      How can I exclude the important emails so I don't have to check my deleted folder every day or every week.

      It actually depends on what the spam emails say, so if you get one that says “claim your money now!”, or “your bank account has been hacked!”, you can use those as key words for your spam inbox. It’s really up to you if you want a new addition to your gmail. I don’t want to ruin your gmail 😂

  • @spinster4000
    @spinster4000 3 роки тому +7

    Furthering up on this awesome tip is to make at least a list of at least 15 most often used words you see in your spam emails, don’t delete them until you have this list. Then create the filters and put in these words (make multiple filters containing one or two words, not just one filter with all the words) hope this helps!

    why cant they just have a block feature, that dosent delete it after you got it, or send it to spam, a block that prevents the person to even sending it to your account. give them a warning or something.

  • @dgbeck
    @dgbeck 5 років тому +10

    Does this work: yes and no.
    It does exactly what the video says, deletes all emails that contain the word "unsubscribe", so of course it is still really helpful. I think the people/bots sending the spam emails have caught wind of this method though, since they wont actually have the word unsubscibe in the email anymore, but rather an image that has the word unsubscribe in it. Since the word unsubscribe is part of the image and not the actual text in the email, the filter no longer picks it up. Not sure if there is any way around this :/

    • @sheilablub

    this didn't do anything; in fact they started sending more spam. do you only put 1 word in the box for " has the words" -I put in 4 words and created 5 filters and they increased the spam .

    Lots of the spam I'm getting, do not have ANY TEXT in the body of the email, just an image. You can't use a keyword to filter out spam with no text in the body. Gmail's filters are not robust enough.

  • @loveforeignaccents
    @loveforeignaccents 3 роки тому

    I mean what's the point though... they just go into the trash folder instead of the spam folder?!! Either way you still have to end up deleting them manually. I would rather just have them all in the spam so I could click "select all", instead of individually in the trash bin after sorting through what's trash I want to save and what spam I want out. Kind of pointless to me.

  • @MariusGiurgi
    @MariusGiurgi 2 роки тому

    I have a LOT of emails from legitimate entities that offer “unsubscribe” option. This solution is BS so stop advertising it as a solution for removing spam. YOu might as well delete everting and then go read your trash mail to see if you got anything relevant. The whole goal of a spam filter is to be able to not bother at all with any spam email... you searching the trash bin for “relevant” email is the same as searching the inbox for relevant email in a pile of spam email.
