Overview
Gmail or Google Workspace may place PhotoBiz notification emails in Spam or sort them into another inbox category. You can create a Gmail filter that tells Gmail not to send matching PhotoBiz notifications to Spam.
This guide explains how to create a filter for notifications sent from emailsupport@mailbiz1.photobiz.com. You will also learn how to find missing notifications and what to do if your Google Workspace organization blocks the message before it reaches your inbox.
PhotoBiz is not affiliated with Google. Gmail and Google Workspace settings are managed by Google and may change over time.
Log in to the Gmail or Google Workspace inbox where you receive notifications from your PhotoBiz account.
Open Gmail in a web browser on a computer. Locate the search bar at the top of your inbox.
Click the SHOW SEARCH OPTIONS icon on the right side of the Gmail search bar.
The advanced search panel will open. You can use this panel to identify the PhotoBiz notification email address.
Enter emailsupport@mailbiz1.photobiz.com in the FROM field.
Leave the remaining search fields blank. Click CREATE FILTER in the lower-right corner of the search panel.
Select Never send it to Spam.
You can apply additional settings to make PhotoBiz notifications easier to locate:
Do not select Delete it or Skip the Inbox unless you intentionally want Gmail to delete or archive the notifications.
Click Create filter to save your settings. Gmail will apply the selected actions to future messages sent from emailsupport@mailbiz1.photobiz.com.
Enter the following search into the Gmail search bar:
from:emailsupport@mailbiz1.photobiz.com
Review the results and check these Gmail locations:
If you find a PhotoBiz notification in Spam, open or select the message and click NOT SPAM. Gmail will move the message out of Spam.
You can also add emailsupport@mailbiz1.photobiz.com to your Google Contacts.
Saving the address as a contact helps Gmail recognize that you know the sender. For the best results, add the address to your contacts and create the filter described in this guide.
A Gmail filter only helps when the notification is being sent to the correct email address.
Confirm that the notification email address saved in your PhotoBiz account is complete and spelled correctly. Depending on the type of notification, you may manage this address through Forms, Scheduler, ECommerce, Client Galleries, or another area of your account.
Correct any errors before testing the notification again.
By default, notifications are sent to the email address you use to log into your PhotoBiz account. You can also customize notification settings for forms, orders, etc.
Form Notification Settings Guide
If you use an email address managed through Google Workspace, your organization may have email rules that users cannot change.
A personal Gmail filter only controls messages that reach your mailbox. It cannot recover a message rejected, blocked, or quarantined by an organization-level Google Workspace rule.
If the notification does not appear in Spam, Trash, All Mail, or another inbox category, ask your Google Workspace administrator to:
emailsupport@mailbiz1.photobiz.com as an approved sender when appropriate.Only a Google Workspace administrator can manage these organization-level settings.
To manage the filter later:
emailsupport@mailbiz1.photobiz.com.The notification still goes to Spam
Open or select the notification and click NOT SPAM.
Review your Gmail filter and confirm that the FROM field contains emailsupport@mailbiz1.photobiz.com and NEVER SEND IT TO SPAM is selected. Check your other Gmail filters for rules that could delete, archive, label, or redirect the message.
The notification appears in another inbox category
Edit the filter and select CATEGORIZE AS, followed by PRIMARY.
You can also move an existing notification to the Primary category. Gmail may ask whether future messages from the sender should be placed there.
The notification does not appear anywhere
Search for from:emailsupport@mailbiz1.photobiz.com and check Spam, Trash, All Mail, Promotions, and Updates.
Confirm that the notification email address in your PhotoBiz account is correct. You should also verify that your Google storage is not full.
If you use Google Workspace, ask your organization’s administrator to review its email logs, quarantine, approved senders, and organization-level email rules.
I cannot create or change the filter
Make sure you are using Gmail in a web browser on a computer. Filter settings may not be available through every mobile Gmail interface.
Your Google Workspace administrator may also restrict certain Gmail settings. Contact your organization’s administrator if the filter options are unavailable.
Does this guarantee that every notification will be delivered?
No. The filter tells Gmail not to send matching messages that reach your mailbox to Spam. It cannot override an invalid recipient address, a full mailbox, an organization-level rejection, or another email delivery problem.
