WarningBody content

Promotional content in a forwarded/reply email (thread hijack for promo delivery)

fake-fwd-promo-body

What this tier means

Warning signal — bulk / marketing / mild spam. Contributes to the trash score but is not by itself sufficient.

How Gorganizer detects this

Subject begins with a forward or reply prefix (Fwd:, Fw:, Re:, SV:, VB:, WG:, etc.) AND the body contains ≥3 bulk-marketing indicators: List-Unsubscribe footer lines, UTM tracking parameters, ESP footers ("Powered by Mailchimp"), "view in browser" links, or standard unsubscribe/preference-management copy. Spammers route promotional emails through genuine forwarded threads or manually construct Fwd: chains to borrow the conversational trust signal that email clients assign to forwarded mail. Score: +3 trash (counter-weights the +2 invoice bonus from reply-or-forward).

False-positive guard

Every signal in Gorganizer feeds a multi-module score — never a sole verdict. This is a warning-tier signal — bulk / marketing / mild spam. It contributes to the trash score but never triggers deletion on its own. Gorganizer requires multiple signals + a margin over the safety floor before any email is moved to trash.

About the scoring engine

Gorganizer's scoring engine emits over 1,800 signals across six modules — headers, sender, subject, body, attachments, and structural metadata. Every email is scored by every module independently; the final verdict requires multiple modules to agree and the trash score to beat the safety floor by a margin.

Sacred safety guards — never delete starred emails, replies, calendar invites, receipts/invoices, or attachments — apply unconditionally regardless of any signal.
