Glad to hear you like Sidebar!
And you're right, the open rate is much lower than usual (19% vs 63% for the one before). I didn't noticed it before because the daily edition containing the same referral link that I sent on the same day went through fine.
This happens from time to time and I'm not sure what I can do about it.
I honestly don't understand how Gmail's spam filter can be so "dumb" (at least from a human point of view). You'd think that if someone open, reads, and clicks emails from a particular address regularly, the filter would be smart enough to know that there's a very high probability it's not spam.
- juriga 14y agoGmail's spam filter definitely seems to be erring on the aggressive side nowadays. I honestly can't remember when any real spam last reached my inbox. On the other hand, I did find many other false positives while going through the spam folder, mainly from newsletters and social notifications I really have subscribed to. I guess the least we can do is help Google tune their filters and periodically mark all false positives as "not spam".
- wamatt 14y agoAgreed. Additionally one might go as far to suggest false positives are more problematic than the occasional spam mail.
