    Does anyone else have an issue with this?

    One of the most useful features for me in Gmail is to be able to "filter messages like this", so that newsletters go straight to a separate folder and don't clutter my inbox.

    Recently, about half of those which worked perfectly fine for years seem to end up in my inbox, like in this example below:

    Obviously very much a first world problem, but was just wondering if anyone else has this problem. I don't see a lot of complaints about it on Twitter, so I don't know...

    I have always hated GMail
    it was overly complicated bullsh*t to me
    I send messages there and cannot find them if they arrive at all

    Lol, what? Gmail has to be one of the easiest platforms to use in the world. You have brought shame on your family.

    To answer OPs question, no I haven't experienced this yet. Admittedly I don't use that feature much either.

    Can you take a screen shot of the actual filter setting that isn’t working, and post it.

    I got your back, RR. :D

    I've been a Yahoo Mail user since the late 90s (well, for one or two of my accounts, anyway). I like to split the companies that read my email and shove ads at me around. lol. Google annoys me and has too many tentacles into my life, anyway. I never really liked their interface, either. I've been slowly switching away from Yahoo to Proton Mail, as well. Any of these services would work fine for me, so it's not like they offer a ton of ways to differentiate themselves to me. I send email, I get email - that's about all I care. :D

    It might be that this company (remarkable) changed email addresses so your existing filter doesn't capture it anymore

    IMO, this is the most legit reason to not use Gmail.
