I checked my email box this morning and surprisingly no flood of emails. I wondered why? Then I noticed my spam box with 80 emails... They are now marking everything spam that has Ron Paul in the text. I marked them all as "not spam" and now they are all gone, forever.

Hmm, my inbox is full of Ron Paul stuff. Maybe you hit the spam button instead of delete.

I went back and looked, and apparently "updates08@ronpaulforcongress.com" is being diverted to my SPAM box on gmail. That's the only Ron Paul stuff I see being sent to SPAM, but it is in fact being sent there.

Advanced search, search in SPAM, the two messages fron 'updates08@ronpaulforcongress.com' one today and one fron late June; were the only two Ron Paul related items in my SPAM box.

yes google is also part of the conspiracy against Ron Paul. The conspiracy sheep will never shut up, get a grip on reality already.

spam filters will redirect mass e-mails to the spam box. just allow that address to go through.

Guys! A week ago, they sent Liberty Insurance Newsletter to my spam box as well. This is not an isolated incident!!!

Google wants to stop people from learning and freeing their brains! They are a Reptilian corporation!

I had this email also flagged as spam but I imagine it was simply something in the body of the message that set off what ever algorithm is being used. An isolated incident is not a Ron Paul Spam Conspiracy......yet

Gmail takes all the Ron Paul emails I get and puts nice little green tags on them so I can browse them at my leisure. Thanks Gmail!

I get so much Ron Paul related emails in my gmail account that it's silly. I just looked in my spam folder and amongst all of the email about increasing my sexual prowess, avoiding foreclosure and free gift cards--is an email stating that Miss Universe was assassinated on a plane on her way home!

It is a conspiracy!

Never said it was. :) It's all these other weirdoes that are going off about Gmail conspiracies.

If you have another e-mail address besides Gmail....then you should create a filter in which any e-mail containing the words "Ron Paul" is forwarded to your other e-mail address. Also create another "ronpaul" filter without the space.

Google has been vetted by this organization (http://www.privacyinternational.org/issues/internet/interimrankings.pdf) and they rank it "hostile to privacy."
Here's an article about it. (http://www.ohmproject.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=35&Itemid=1)

For an alternative to Gmail, I recommend Hushmail (http://www.hushmail.com). I use it. I like it.

Never tried Safe-mail.net, but it looks good too.

If you are looking for an alternative search engine, Ixquick.com is a pretty accurate search engine, but its real strength is in its protection of privacy, especially compared to Google's search engine.

Please do not demean Reptilians by claiming they are men. That dis-info Reptilian obviously just wants to kill Ron Paul and his Revolution.

Didn't you watch the last AJ episode?

Its not G-Mail. Some bastard from the Gop signs up for all of our mass emails and then reports them as SPAM. :)

Its what I would do.

Anybody else have gmail mark mailings from the CFL as spam?

I checked my spam folder today and there was one from CFL. I am 99.9% positive that I did not accidentally click to label it as spam.

I seem to recall one other time that a RP or CFL message was sent to the spam folder, and I told gmail it was not spam but that was a while ago.

I get very few spam messages, maybe one per day on average, and the vast majority are in chinese characters.

Anyone know how google decides what is and is not spam? Is it based on keywords? Is it based on gmail users marking messages from a sender, domain, or of a specific content as spam?

Here's the content of the message for those interested:


March 12, 2009


Dear Friend of Liberty,

Right now, you and I are seeing the worst plundering of a nation’s wealth in the history of civilization – all led by the out of control Federal Reserve.

If you and I don’t act today, I’m afraid this crisis will end with the economic ruin of every man, woman and child in the United States.

Just think about the scope of the problem for a minute: The Fed pumps trillions of dollars in fiat currency into a system already overloaded by the massive amount of dollars committed to the economic bailouts in recent months.

This TOTALS:

More than the socialist New Deal...
More than the entire Iraq debacle...
More than the 1980’s savings and loan mess...
More than the Korean War...

COMBINED.

Where will it all end?

It’s time you and I put a stop to an out of control Federal Reserve. And Ron Paul has a bill before Congress to do just that.

That’s why it’s vital you fill out your personal "Audit the Fed" petition in support of Congressman Paul’s bill.

Today, $9.7 TRILLION in taxpayer dollars in bailouts and loans have been agreed to by Congress, the Bush and Obama Treasury Departments, and the Federal Reserve.

Poll after poll shows the American people are fed up and are ready for fresh leadership to make their voices heard in Washington.

That means it’s a perfect time to unleash the Ron Paul R3VOLUTION on the out of control Fed!

Please complete this petition urging your Congressman to cosponsor and a seek roll-call vote on Ron Paul’s Audit the Fed Bill -- the first step toward ENDING THE FEDERAL RESERVE once and for all!

As I know you’re aware, the Federal Reserve’s inner-workings are shrouded in secrecy, and their meetings are off-limits to the public.

Just recently, the Federal Reserve told Congress “NO WAY” when asked to account for TWO TRILLION DOLLARS in taxpayer-backed loans!

Well, why do you think they refused?

They know coming clean with Congress and the American people on how they doled out those two TRILLION dollars would result in an anti-Fed firestorm.

So can you imagine the impact of a full-scale audit?

You and I will finally be able to show the American people that the Federal Reserve System leads to:

*** Constant economic crises -- the housing crisis and the resulting chaos is just one example of an economic bubble created by centrally-planned interest rates and money manipulation;

*** The destruction of the middle class -- as fuel, food, housing, medical care and education costs soar, everyone who is NOT on the government dole is forced to make do with less as the value of their money slowly decreases;

*** Currency destruction -- history shows us that riots, violence and full-scale police states can result when people finally realize fiat money isn’t worth the paper it’s printed on and REFUSE to accept it.

And unless you and I do end the madness in Washington, D.C., we may be closer than we’d like to think to learning that history lesson first hand -- right here on the streets of our towns and cities.

That’s why your commitment to helping the Campaign for Liberty fight this battle is so vital.

Just a few months ago, there was no chance of passing any legislation like Ron Paul’s Audit-the-Fed Bill.

So I guess there has been one “CHANGE.”

But with the piling up of trillions of dollars in out of control “bailouts” of Wall Street and international bankers, even many politicians in Washington, D.C. want to show you they’re “being responsible”.

What better way for Congress to do this than by auditing the Federal Reserve to account for the trillions stolen from the U.S. taxpayers?

There will be many battles you and I must fight over the coming months to take back our country. But this one is set to rage in Congress in just a few short weeks.

And, it’s a bill we CAN pass!

You see, after regulating, taxing, spending, borrowing and printing us into what looks like the worst recession in decades, establishment politicians and power brokers are assuring us they are working hard to “fix” our economic woes.

So they want to do something (anything) to show you they care.

That’s why Dr. Paul’s bill is positioned to move forward this year.

And since very few politicians understand the Federal Reserve System, they do not understand the threat this bill poses to the borrow-and-spend system they continually vote for.

And even if Ron Paul’s Audit-the-Fed Bill is defeated, just forcing a vote is a win/win situation.

Can you imagine how many politicians will pay the price at the ballot box in 2010 when you and I tell the American people their Congressman somehow lost trillions of taxpayer dollars and voted against even looking for the money?

Of course, getting a vote won’t be easy, but you know just as well as I do that Ron Paul has proven he’s not afraid of a fight.

Now, we just need to show Congress that the American people demand action on Ron Paul’s Audit-the-Fed Bill. Here’s how we plan to do that:

First, we’re already busy contacting up to five million activists nationwide through mail, phones and e-mail to generate petitions to the U.S. Congress demanding action on the bill.

But that’s just the beginning.

We’ll work the talk radio stations and grant local media interviews to further turn up the pressure on Congress. And, of course, Ron Paul supporters will own the meet-up groups and social networking sites that first launched our R3volution.

And a few days before the vote, if we have the resources, we’d also like to run hard-hitting targeted radio, TV and newspaper ads.

This entire program is designed to send one, CLEAR message to Congress -- Any politician who votes against the Federal Reserve Audit should look for another job.

But such a massive effort won’t be easy -- or cheap.

So, along with your petition, I also hope you’ll agree to make a contribution of $250, $100, or $50 to the Campaign for Liberty.

I know times are hard, but if we don’t take action, the America we see in just a few years could look much different than the one we see today.

So please, fill out your petition and give a generous contribution of $250, $100, or $50 to the Campaign for Liberty IMMEDIATELY.

Please don’t just ignore this email.

Can I count on you to join the fight to ultimately END THE FED by making a generous contribution of $250, $100, $50 -- or whatever you can afford to the Campaign for Liberty?

Sincerely,

John F. Tate
President

P.S. Please fill out this petition DEMANDING your Congressman cosponsor and seek a roll-call vote on Ron Paul’s Audit-the-Fed Bill TODAY!

With Congress spending like never before, and TRILLIONS of new dollars flying off the printing presses, it’s never been more important to expose the Federal Reserve System to the American people once and for all.

So along with your petition, please contribute to Campaign for Liberty. Whether you can donate as much as $250 – or $50 or some other amount, please do what you can. I know any amount in these hard times is a sacrifice!

Campaign for Liberty operates like government should, meaning we will not go into debt. Only your voluntary contributions permit us to do this work.

I suggest not trying Yahoo mail.

They're even more deceptive. They'll allow you to receive mail for years, *then* quietly begin to mark it as spam.

yahoo mail did that for me

my friends who are on my contacts LIST would email me and mention Ron Paul in the email
then Id find the message has gone to the spam folder
I never bothered to tell them. not because I want angry but because I didnt think it would do a thing

but porn spam somehow makes it to my inbox

This is actually good news. means that Ron Paul is shaking things and the oligarchs are running scared
