How to completely get rid of spam emails in Gmail

Getting spam emails has become such a normal thing that we don’t even get bothered by it anymore. But, if you are getting an insufferable amount of spam emails delivered to your main inbox, you should look for quick tricks that we are going to show you. If you follow the steps we have mentioned here, you will get significantly less number of spam emails.

Why to make your inbox spam free?

Spam emails are a distraction. Everyone wants a complete spam-free email inbox. This way, the important email messages stay afloat at the top of the inbox, while the unnecessary spam emails have their way directly to their dedicated position – the ‘spam’ folder.

Usually, you can find the ‘unsubscribe’ word in all the spam emails. So, we can sort out all spam email messages from the inbox just by using this particular filter. Once you have done that, you can just create a separate label on the Gmail inbox to send all those messages there. Your inbox will be automatically cleared up off all the spam email messages.

 



How to completely get rid of spam emails on Gmail

The way of getting rid of all the spam emails from the Gmail inbox is pretty simple. All you have to do is to sort the emails using the ‘unsubscribe’ filter and move them to a separate folder, rather than the original inbox.

Step 1 – Open up your Gmail inbox.

Step 2 – Tap the ‘Show search options’ in the search box to open it up.

 

 

 

Step 3 – Then, write the ‘Includes the words:’ in “unsubscribe“.

Step 4 – Tap “Create filter” to create the filter in Gmail.

In the next phase of creating this filter, we are going to create a new label named ‘Spam folder’ so that all the email messages containing the ‘unsubscribe‘ item will move straight there.

Step 5 – Now, check the “Skip the Inbox (Archive it)” option.

Step 6 Next, check the “Apply the label:” button there. Tap the “New label” from the drop-down to craft a new label for the inbox.

Once you have placed the filter, all the spam email messages will be archived. Once these emails are archived, they will disappear from your main feed in the inbox. Then, these messages make their way into the separate label folder.

This is the proper way of creating a complete-spam free email inbox experience.
