I keep getting messages with different From
but the same mailed-by
field. I need to mark these messages as spam, but simply doing so doesn't work.
Creating filters searches for From
values only, so that doesn't work either. How can I mark these messages as spam/ blacklist them by the mailed-by
value?
Best Answer
Unfortunately not. According to the Gmail Help page Search operators you can use with Gmail, there is no filter for
mailed-by
. If you can find a common link between the emails being sent, you can filter using these search operators and then create a filter to delete them.If not, there are suggestions from Gmail as to how to act on these emails. As you can see, some of these are not ideal or even practical, but it seems to be the only way at this point:
Source: Check if your Gmail message is authenticated
Source: This message may not have been sent by...
Source: Mark or unmark Spam in Gmail
Summary
For whatever reason, there is no way to filter by
mailed-by
at this point in time. However, Gmail can do something about it. Unless you can find another common link between the emails, reporting the messages as Spam and Phishing is the most practical way to stop them from appearing, although the effects will not be immediate.
