(email visible only to moderators and staff) comprised?

    Couldn’t find an email for you guys, so posting here 🥴 I got an email notification this morning that Google flagged as “This message seems dangerous” – which is weird, because it didn’t seem dangerous 2 days ago when I got a notification. Apparently, the senders account may have been compromised. Just an FYI because I’ve never seen this before lol

    Hi there!

    Google (and Gmail) uses an aggressive AI that scans emails and flags them as “dangerous” – but Google never defines what is considered “dangerous” so it’s hard to tell why emails get flagged. With the quantity of emails WordPress.com sends out on a daily basis, some emails get caught by this AI. You should have the option to mark the email as “looks safe” to train this AI that our emails aren’t dangerous.

    I hope that clarifies things!

    Hey,

    Thanks for the speedy reply – I figured as much haha.

    With everything that’s been going on, I just wanted to let you guys know in case anything was up.

    Have a good one
