Savvy off-road sold? (the unofficial Savvy customer support and Savvy rant thread)

If it helps anyone, all my email responses from Gerald go to my Spam folder. Not sure why, but I'm in the corner with every email that I have sent him has gotten a pretty quick response (within a day I'd say). Anyway, just throwing it out there in case responses are hitting your Spam folders. I don't often check for stuff there unless I'm not getting responses I think I should be.

You should be able to fix that so it hits your inbox and doesn't get redirected to the SPAM folder. Every email client I have seen has the option to allow you to mark the sender address as "safe" or "not SPAM". It should be honored even if the email content trips SPAM filter weights. Try right clicking on one of the messages in your SPAM folder and see what options your client gives you.
 
I have a zero tolerance policy for SPAM. I was just emailing with one of my dance teachers who had an infestation of SPAMmers on her class discussion board. Excerpted from that conversation:

I fucking hate SPAM. SPAM ruined usenet, makes cell phones a nuisance, is why I have texting turned off on my phone (didn't use it much anyway), and its a never ending battle on my email - my email is 99.99% SPAM free, but I'm always having to tweak things to keep it that way. I also cloudflared my website to minimize hostile bots and SPAM contact form submissions, and have facebook blocked completely as well.

I also do not have email SPAM folders. If it doesn't pass my tests, it goes straight to /dev/null and I never have to deal with it. I remember when email SPAM started "suddenly" one February years back. Before then, you seldom saw it, then out of the blue, the 'net was full of it. One of my co-workers was so pissed about it that he called the owner of a domain from which he received SPAM at 0300 in the morning and reamed the guy a "new one". Same thing with text, about 4 or 5 years ago, "suddenly" I started getting SPAM texts. I told my wife "I'm not paying for this bullshit", and turned it off and pocketed the $2.50/mo. Never mind these fucktards that try to SPAM my phone with bullshit phone calls - if I don't know the number AND I'm not expecting a call from an unknown number, I don't answer the thing.

Must be great to afford the luxury of not having to answer a phone when a call comes in. I can't.

I understand - you're running a business and have to answer unknown numbers all the time. My sympathies, or "you poor bastard".

My worst is I'll get a call when I'm on another, I hang up and call it back. "Please speak with my google assistant and let them know why you are calling before I answer". Uh, no, not gonna happen.

We are charging 1542.38 to your card based on the Amazon order you placed. If you did not authorize this transaction, press 1. I press 1 just to see what they have to say. Thank you for calling Amazon, how can I help you? You called me. click
I got that one from 5 different numbers yesterday and the exact same result every time. click

It should be legal to drag any spammer you can catch down a paved road with a rope until they promise never to do it again. Not only legal, there should be rewards offered.

I am one of those people with google assistant turned on for unknown numbers. I love it. It has decreased my spam calls by almost 90%. At work I am not free to answer the phone for a random call. Google Assistant will show a live transcription of the phone call with the reason someone is calling. If it is important I can step away from taking care of patients and answer or call them right now. Prime example when my son fell and broke his arm during recess. A volunteer called me and I was able to see the message. "your son fell and his arm is deformed" Was able to tell a patient sorry I need to swap out with another Tech my son just got hurt.

But what works for one person doesn't for another. I get it.

I assume Google Assistant is something that works with Android phones? In any event - can it be set to "know" a number that you just dialed out so the callback will go through?
