Unexpected warning!

Post by Amelia43 »

I read Lounge emails in Gmail using Firefox. A banner warning popped up today. "This message seems dangerous." I wonder how the Lounge qualified for that!! :scratch:

It's probably because the Lounge messages contain rather generic text; the spam filter apparently finds this suspicious.
Best wishes,

I wonder why it wasn't just consigned to the spam folder. It opened normally in the inbox. I have never seen this message before- is this something new in Gmail?

Thank you Leif. I haven't seen the warning message again, in Lounge emails or any others. Emails in the spam folder don't bear this message. Another inexplicable oddity- I should be used to them by now!
