Using Gmail to Fight Chain Mails
I’ve already talked in a previous post about how chain mails drive me mad.
Now it’s time to take action, using Gmail’s powerful feature.
One thing one can do, is using Gmail filters to identify chain mails according to the mail’s subject (Which will be typically “Fw:Fw something” or similar), and archive/delete/label this message. But, this is not aggressive enough. Here is another action one can take using another powerful Gmail feature (currently a “Labs” feature).
