When facebook started doing this for groups it took me a while to work out how to filter the emails (I don't read email unless it comes from a real person - facebook group interactions, since they are scattergun announcements, don't count as real people..)
The answer ended up being to configure facebook's byzantine settings on a per-group basis, which still means I get hit for 5 or 10 messages when someone adds me to a group, and before I can get to the web interface to 'unsubscribe'.
This spammy RA would be less of a problem, as it would be easy to filter one Tabule user - but it does make it a pain to have a "MailingLists/Tabule" gmail label containing all the Facebook/Tabule/whatever messages!
- guptaneil 14y agoOne option is to catch any email that ends with @tabuleapp.com or @facebook.com to label notification emails from those services.
- tehwalrus 14y agothis only works if the email comes from that domain. Facebook, I think, switched to setting the 'from' email using the users' registered emails (i.e. the user who posted on the group wall seems to have sent you an email by doing so...)
