Bypassing Gmail Spam Filter

There is no way to turn spam filtering off in Gmail, but this will allow you to get everything in your inbox, including spam.

1. Click the gear in the upper right hand corner and then…  (this is a new step due to Gmail interface changes)
2. Go into “Settings”, and then pick the tab “Filters”.
3. At the bottom, pick “Create New Filter”
4. In the resulting popup, place this text (without the quotes) “is:spam” into the “Has the Words” box, and click “Create filter with this search”.
5. Gmail will complain about this, saying “giving you a popup that says “Filter searches containing…..are not recommended as they will never match incoming email.”.  IGNORE THAT.  Just press OK.
6. Tick the check mark that says “Never send it to Spam”, and then click “Create Filter”.
