I never had that problem, unless you mean things like the occasional Facebook or Twitter notification ending up in spam, but I didn't care about those.

Also, Gmail definitely has a problem with false positives. At the small agency where I worked a few years ago, a lot of our internal company emails were ending up in spam folders. It got so bad that I had to go around adding our company email domain to the spam exclusion filters just to make sure that my co-workers were receiving my emails.



I'd rather be convinced by the benefits of something than the disadvantages of what I'm already using. For me, Gmail works. Fastmail did not.

I'm not attacking Fastmail. I just didn't want to put in the effort to train the spam filters.
