Had an exchange of emails with someone, around 4-5 back and forth emails. He then told me that my last reply never arrived. When I forwarded that email again to him, he told me that actually the original reply arrived but landed in spam… he checked it after I forwarded the initial reply.
It’s not critical or even a super important conversation but I think he lied to me. Is there any chance that a reply lands in spam if the last 4 mails in a thread arrived without a problem?
The emails were sent from a custom domain, using Office 365 Business. I have that email address for more than 6 years and I never had a problem with my emails landing in spam or never arriving. It’s the first time I am hearing about it but I think he is duping me.
Set up temporary email account for the purpose of test, write to yourself, mark as spam, check how it works, forget about it.
Done.
Best case: This achieves absolutely nothing.
Worst case: Your ‘temporary’ email account gets banned for spamming (new account, first email sent is marked as spam by receiver). Then your original email account is banned too for ban evasion (same IP, same browser fingerprint, they know it’s you).
Just don’t mess with the spam filters on a server that doesn’t belong to you.
You shouldn’t be working in IT. If you do, then your salary is wasted.
Ah well, I have plenty of uses for my salary. Though I’m a software developer, so that’s more like ITish.
I also run my own mail server with a self-learning spam filter, so I know how easy it is to mess that one up.
You totally shouldn’t work in IT and if you do, it’s a waste of money.

Woooooooooooooooooow, what a flex. You should definitely think about Silicon Valley startup with that experience of yours…
