How do I get mail sent to me from this forum re-routed out of my spam folder?


This is a forum technical problem I'm having. Some of the legitimate emails from this forum site (LinuxQuestions.org) are ending up in my spam folder in my Google Gmail account. How do I fix this?
Thanks

If you're using GMail, click Settings > Filters, then add a filter for *@linuxquestions.org and check the box for "Never send to spam"

maples, cool signature. The little icon that shows your OS has a Google Chrome symbol. Are you on a Chrome Book?

Yes... Our school has a program where every student gets one through the school.

I usually get on LQ when I have downtime... just goes to show how social I am.

I actually use Linux on all of my laptops and have a server at home.

I haven't had to use Windows in months.

It seems like I cant get 100 percent away from windows, at least not for personal use. We have some machines at work needing Windows-only apps for our accounting department. err!

I don't mind using a Windows machine from time to time, though I haven't mucked about with Windows 8 and I successfully avoided Vista.

I think it's good to keep one's Windows skills fresh.
