Gmail repeatedly marking Harvard emails as spam

A quirk in Google's Gmail system that identifies heavy loads of mail from one source as spam again afflicted Harvard users over Thanksgiving weekend, according to Jason Fuller, Harvard Law School's Manager of Technology Support Services. For the second time this year, the Google spam flag appeared to cause significant delays in email delivery for users on the Harvard Law School and Harvard Faculty of Arts and Sciences (FAS) networks whose Harvard email accounts forward to the Google email service, and for Gmail users waiting for emails from the Harvard network.
