My recent experience suggests you can get any message through Gmail's spam filter by adding "Walmart Confirmation" to the subject line
@caseynewton makes me wonder: does this extend to other large retailers? Amazon Confirmation, Target, etc.
@thebigredbeanie @caseynewton Probably, yes. This is most likely a learned pattern based on which messages users marked as spam, not something that was intentionally programmed in. So it stands to reason that it would apply to any retailer with enough Gmail users.
@LouisIngenthron @thebigredbeanie @caseynewton that should only work paired with a trusted sender domain, not otherwise
@Natanael_L @thebigredbeanie @caseynewton You'd think, wouldn't you? I suppose that depends on how well they've parameterized their ML algorithms vs how much they just let them run wild.
