I appreciate the organization that comes with Gmail automatically assigning my messages to categories. However, I have one source of email that is a veritable firehose, and Gmail seems to think they should be placed in the "Updates" category. I already have a filter set up to skip the Inbox and apply a label, but the Updates category is rendered useless.
I tried editing the filter, but the only option I could see relating to categories was choosing a category to assign, and "None" wasn't an option.
I also manually removed them by selecting them and choosing Not "Updates"
, but it seems Gmail does not learn from actions like this.
Is there any way to remove these from the Updates category? I am using Multiple Inboxes so dragging messages out of the category doesn't offer the option to always do so.
