"Google's email filtering on Gmail appears to be on the fritz today, as messages that would normally be routed to the Promotions or Social tabs are appearing in the Primary inbox. Google didn't immediately respond to a request for comment. However, users on social media are complaining about this "extremely annoying" glitch. This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed."
""The @gmail spam filter broke this morning for me, absolute e-mail armageddon," one X user wrote. "Woke up to @gmail filters not working right and an overloaded inbox. Just deleting like crazy," added another. The support team handling tweets directed at the Gmail X account doesn't appear to understand what's happening. People who complained in the last few hours about Gmail filtering being broken or spam detection "acting a bit weird""
"The tabbed inbox option on Gmail has been around and lets you wall off the influx of marketing emails in their own inbox so important messages don't get lost. If you're seeing emails in the wrong tab, you can drag them to the correct one and tell Gmail to send all further messages from that email there,"
Gmail's filtering is malfunctioning, causing messages that normally go to Promotions or Social tabs to appear in the Primary inbox. Users on social media report spam filters failing and inboxes overloaded, describing the issue as "extremely annoying" and "e-mail armageddon." Gmail support responses have directed affected users to support pages or asked for direct messages, with inconsistent understanding of the problem. Some users report LinkedIn notifications, promotional emails, and newsletters appearing in Primary. Gmail's tabbed inbox can be manually corrected by dragging emails to desired tabs and setting future routing. A fix from Google is expected to resolve the issue.
