[Dixonary] OT: Thunderbird Marking Messages as Spam

[Guerri Stevens]

One of the Dixonary messages I got today was marked as spam. I have just
waded through all my Thunderbird settings and cannot see anything that
tells it to do that. In the past, Tbird has said "we think this message
is spam". Now apparently it has decided to just mark a suspect message.

My version is 52.9.1 and Tbird claims this is "up to date".

Guerri,

No spam filter is perfect. They all flag some non-spam as spam and don't flag some spam. Different ones lean more one way or the other, and some have settings to control this, but the problem is inherent in the nature of the beast.

My email software, not T-bird, has a way to mark messages as "not spam" when this happens. The program learns fairly quickly and lets messages from that sender through. Does yours?

I think that's exactly what I've been doing: marking the messages as
"not spam". It is just an annoyance and it seems that the spam filter
has become more strict.
