Hanno Rein on Nostr: The University of Toronto spam filter is 💩. I don’t have any control over it ...
The University of Toronto spam filter is 💩. I don’t have any control over it (can’t turn it off) and it consistently categorizes emails from within the university as spam. This includes error messages from the university’s own mail server and reference letter requests from the university’s own admissions system. Support requests to get this fixed end up in a black hole because the entire email system has been outsourced to Microsoft and nobody at UofT can do anything.
