Reporting Spam
The Gmail webmail service is quite effective at preventing spam (junk mail) from reaching your Inbox.
When you do receive spam you can help improve the Gmail service by reporting the conversation as
spam.
To report a conversation as spam:
●
When reading the email, press >
Report spam
.
– or –
From the Inbox, tap the checkmark to select the messages, then tap > Report spam.
When you report a conversation as spam, the conversation (and all its messages) are removed from your
Inbox. You can view the messages you've marked as spam by switching to the Spam label. (See Viewing
Conversations by Label on page 114.)
Searching for Messages
With the Gmail application, it is very easy to search and find specific emails. When you search for emails,
all of the emails in your Google account on the web are included in your search (except those labeled
Trash or Spam), not just those that you've synchronized onto your device. You can also use the
advanced search options as described on the Gmail website.
1. From the Inbox, press >
Search
.

Note
The conversation list will resemble your Inbox. Most of the options available while using your Inbox will also be available
while viewing these lists of labeled messages.
