in reply to Tuta • • •Because of this, it gets better over time as you report mistakes.
To make sure your mailbox sorts emails correctly, please 👉
Click “Report spam” for unwanted emails in your inbox.
Click “Not spam” for emails that were wrongly placed in Spam.
Moving emails into or out of the Spam folder also trains the system.

in reply to Tuta • • •I am a paying subscriber of several years for tutamail and I am also an antispeciesist vegan
I like tutamail because of the commitment to renewable energy[1] and quantum resistant encrypted private emails; put the two together and there is nothing else like it I can think of.
I have a suggestion - I noticed that the junkmail folder is called "Spam" and features an icon of a bug.
"Spam" is a speciesist phrase as I outline in this short post
veganism.social/@ambiguous_yel…
and "Bug" to symbolize a pest/error is speciesist as I explained in this short post
veganism.social/@ambiguous_yel…
My suggestion is to rename this folder to "Junkmail" or equivalent and change the icon to perhaps a crossed circle icon or an exclamation mark or a halt hand gesture or if you wanted to be jokey about it a toilet
If there was a more appropriate place to submit this feedback I couldn't find it

in reply to 🌱🏴🅰️🏳️⚧️🐧🔧📎 Ambiyelp • • •@ambiguous_yelp I do want to add to this that I found the bug indicator to be very confusing even in a non-speciest kind of way. "Bug" is already a term in computing that colloquially means something else and has sort of expanded in tech in general to mean that specific thing. So an icon of a bug to indicate anything else is definitely confusing.
How about an icon of a letter with smell lines coming off it. That's fun and meaningful. 😆
"Junk mail" might actually make more sense just in general terms anyway. It's possible some people won't get the old "spam" reference (especially among those for whom English is not a first language,) but everyone is likely to get "junk mail" intuitively.

in reply to Tuta • • •here's my drive-by feedback -
Positive: I like that you have a "not spam" button now. Much more consistent than dragging back to the inbox, and inspires confidence that it's doing something.
Negative: I've been marking these as spam by clicking the button every day for a while now. They're all from the same email address, have the same subject and body, but nothing appears to be "learning" yet - they all arrive in my inbox.

in reply to Tuta • • •this is definitely MUCH worse than it used to be. I am getting dozens of spam emails every day with exactly the same sender, subject and body and marking them as spam has no effect - they still come straight to my inbox. A month ago I'd get spam in my inbox maybe a couple of times a week.
Whatever you've done, it's not learning anything.
