Gmail Users Experience Issues with Misclassification of Emails and Spam Warnings
If your Gmail account doesn’t seem to be working properly today, you’re not alone.
The official status dashboard for Google Workspace suggests that the issues began at around 5am Pacific on Saturday morning, with users experiencing both “misclassification of emails in their inbox and additional spam warnings.”
Users have reported that their Primary inbox is being filled with messages that would normally appear in the Promotions, Social, or Updates inboxes. Additionally, spam warnings are appearing in emails from known senders.
Social media users have taken to platforms to express their frustrations, with one user stating that “all the spam is going directly to my inbox” and another noting that Gmail’s filters seem “suddenly completely busted.”
Google has acknowledged the issue and stated, “We are actively working to resolve the issue. As always, we encourage users to follow standard best practices when engaging with messages from unknown senders.”
JS has reached out to Google for additional comment on the situation.
