Disable / bypass Gmail spam filter [View all]

Last edited Sat Jan 26, 2013, 10:53 AM - Edit history (3)

I download email directly into my email tool, so I never look in the web based Gmail spam folder. I noticed a lot of messages were getting placed there ... there is no way in Gmail to easily disable spam filtering ... and I use my own spam tools. Passing this along to anyone that might find it of value.

PS: Some have also suggested adding a 4th filter using the same parameters with your user name@gmail.com

And as a 5th filter @ in the TO field, and indicated as same parameters.

I am using all 5 filters and getting ALL of my email now directly to my own filtering tools. ... is working fine for my needs.
