Build Your Own Advanced Gmail Filters with Scripts

​Google gives you a bunch of options for setting up filters to organize your email, but it lacks a few settings to make it seriously powerful. Digital Inspiration shows off how to use a script to power up those filters even more. P
Digital Inspiration’s script lets you set up filters so messages are marked as spam if there are a lot of recipients, if the subject has too many characters, if a message has a set number of hyperlinks, and more. The script then runs in the background and organizes your email just like the official Gmail filters. If Gmail’s filters aren’t doing it for you, this should help. Head over to Digital Inspiration for a guide on setting it all up. ​
