Gmail issue

[Cleoriff]

Is anyone else having problems with Gmail (as in receiving notifications from forum?)

I use gmail 99% for this forum. All worked ok while I was away for weekend. Emails from here came in as normal.

Since 2pm today they have stopped.

I have tested it by sending myself an email from my btinternet account. That came into gmail. A friend has sent me an email to gmail address. That also came in.

So by a process of elimination, it looks as if it's O2 related??.

Just for info, Gmail is on my Note 8. Also via Outlook on my PC (set up in 2 separate accounts ie btinternet and gmail)

Just checking if anyone else is having the same issue?

All O2 posts; private messages notifications marked as spam in gmail. 

I wouldn`t have known of this if it hadn`t been for @Cleoriff `s post.

I`m on laptop, with Windows 10, using Chrome and only have gmail account.

Me either - two mentions were there from over the weekend!
Good job I'm not popular or don't follow many posts as I might have missed them all...

Bit grim when you are running a quiz @Mi-Amigo 

Annoying as hell actually. Time consuming when you have to keep moving them to your inbox, hoping they will 'learn' to go back there as normal!

Thanks @Cleoriff 

It`s bloody annoying. I`ll just keep my eye on the thread and posts rather than rely on notifications in gmail.

Typical google "we think know what is best for you, [and even if we don`t], you are going to have to up with it" attitude. I have a sneaky feeling they are not going to learn and we are gonna have to put up with it

This whole forum@o2.com going to Spam is for the birds... Even adding that e-mail address to my Google contacts makes no difference.

Takes the fun out of dipping into the forum at work now and then.

Does anyone know if its just this forum or are other network providers` forums also going to spam on google? just curious...

Out of the ones I use, it's just O2.

As far as I am concerned @Mi-Amigo it's just this forum. I have had two emails into my gmail address INBOX today from other people.

I have two email addresses 1) bt internet, 2) Gmail. I use gmail for the forum only. (apart from asking two people to send me emails again today to test) Those two emails were sent from a btinternet address and a gmail address. (So they are sending from gmail but not receiving ...if from this forum)

The annoying thing for me was when I joined this forum years ago, I used my btinternet address. Worked well for about 2 years then stopped. I was told that Lithium always had issues with btinternet.

Changed to gmail and never had one problem until 2 days ago.

They are still going into spam folder as I type. Despite marking them as NOT spam and making a rule on my PC that all emails from O2 go into my inbox.

Thanks @MI5 and @Cleoriff for info.

I tried marking posts from O2 forum as NOT spam but all are still going to spam.

@Cleoriff I've had a couple of emails here and there going to spam since I started working on the community but adding the notifications email address to my spam exception list worked a charm and I've not experienced this at all in a long time now!
