I'm getting a lot of spam email in my GMail account. Googling results all seem to point me to blocking ONE email at a time.
Anyone know of a tool or service that will block spam on GMail?
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.

I've used Gmail as my main personal mail account since the fall of 2004. My experience is that Gmail itself does a great job at filtering spam into my Spam folder. In 2 or 3 instances over these last 18 years a spammer discovered some new trick to evade the filters for a few days before the Google engineers caught on. During these days I'd simply bulk select the "unknown" emails from my inbox and mark them as spam.

Same here. It's my own fault though. Giving out my email over the years willy nilly and well... spam happens. Learned the hard way to never use Gmail's unsubscribe option from the spam reporting tool. All that does is tell spammers your email is valid. Then it's open season.
I have notice Gmail sending political emails they don't agree with to spam automatically though, but outside of that it's been pretty good.
Anywho, to actually answer your question. You can select more than email and report it as spam. Is that not working?

If you want to set up a pop account, I use the ancient mail sorter/anti-spam Popfile. I use it for my business accounts, get almost no spam in Gmail imap account (Popfile won't do imap). I especially like its sorting capabilities as well as spam identifier. Like I said, ancient, written with Perl.

I wish I had time to figure out how it worked.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

The crooks politicians are trying to learn from FTX's mistakes.

With the criminal charges against FTX's owner he should simply sit in the Senate hearing room and say nothing.

Watched parts of it. Interestingly, everyone speaking was an elderly person. Not a single youth in the discussion. I feel that the nuances of this crypto thing is more understandable by youth, maybe Gen Z. Wouldn't it be appropriate to include some of them in this discussion?

They are busy with insta and tiktok and making youtube videos about how much they lost on ftx !

But you might want to think twice before a romantic kiss gets involved: It's a poisonous parasite whose name comes from the way it distributes it's seeds *: "Mistle" is Anglo Saxon for "dung" (being polite here), and "Tan" is the word for "twig" - so technically, it's a "sh*t stick" you are kissing under.
* Once it passes through the birds digestive system, it comes out coated in a thick gloopy, sticky liquid which attaches to the birds cloaca and the best way to scrape it off is using a rough surface - like a tree branch. Since that positions the seed (together with a dollop of fertilizer) where it wants to be to parasitise a tree, it works out pretty well.

Yeah, the whole bear's name was rebranded by the editor prior to publication.
Coincidentally, I've had the Pooh Bear stories on audiobook in the car the last few weeks.

As I recall, the way to win is to drop them into the water in a 'twitchy' sort of way.

How does the "toe" from Mistletoe morph into "Tan" that ultimately gives you "stick"?
