Gmail is one of the most used email services in the world today. But its users sometimes face a problem that can be very important. Many times, useful emails go straight to the spam folder, instead of arriving in the inbox.
In such a situation, important job related mail, bank update, OTP or even a message from a particular person may be missed. In fact, Gmail’s spam filter is designed to identify such emails, which may be suspicious or unwanted. But sometimes this filter considers even genuine emails as spam. If this is happening to you too, you can tell Gmail that emails from a particular sender are important to you through a few simple methods. Let’s find out how.
Remove email from spam and make it not spam
If an important email has reached the spam folder, first mark it as not spam. This indicates to Gmail that this email is not spam. Open Gmail on your computer and go to the Spam section in the left menu. Now select the email you want to bring back to the inbox and click on the above given Not Spam option. Open Gmail app on mobile and go to spam folder. After opening the relevant email, select the Report Not Spam option.
Save important senders in Google Contacts
- If emails from any person or company are important to you, saving their email address in Google Contacts can also be helpful.
- For this open Google Contact and create a new contact. Enter the name and email address of the person or company concerned and save it.
- This way, you can help Gmail identify the sender, so important emails are less likely to end up in spam.
Creating a filter in Gmail is also an easy way
If you want to prevent emails from a particular person or company from going to the spam folder, you can create a filter for them in Gmail. This method is especially useful when the sender’s emails often reach spam. For this open Gmail on computer. Click on the search options in the search bar above. Now enter the sender’s email address in the From section.
After this click on Create Filter. Here you will find many options. In this, select the option of Never send it to spam and then click on Create Filter. Gmail will now prevent incoming emails from that sender from being sent to spam.
Keep track of important emails
If an email is very important, it is better to check the spam folder from time to time instead of relying only on the inbox. This precaution can be especially useful in case of emails related to job, banking, OTP or other important work.
If an important mail is found in spam, mark it as not spam and if necessary, save the sender in contacts and create a filter as well. This can reduce the chance of losing important emails in the future.
