What is a category for classifying graymail?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

According to the [Cisco Secure Email User Guide], graymail is a category of email messages that are not spam but may be unwanted by some recipients, such as newsletters, promotions, or social media updates[5, p. 25]. Marketing is one of the subcategories of graymail that includes messages that advertise products or services[5, p. 26].

The other options are not valid because:

A) Malicious is not a category for classifying graymail. It is a category for classifying email messages that contain malicious content such as malware, phishing, or fraud[5, p. 25].

C) Spam is not a category for classifying graymail. It is a category for classifying email messages that are unsolicited, unwanted, or harmful[5, p. 25].

D) Priority is not a category for classifying graymail. It is a category for classifying email messages that are important, urgent, or relevant[5, p. 25].

Ha, I bet the exam writers had a field day coming up with these options. 'Malicious' and 'Priority'? Who would even think those are categories for graymail?

I'd go with B) Marketing. Graymail is that kind of semi-legitimate email that you signed up for, but now they won't leave you alone. It's not quite spam, but it's not exactly welcome either.

I think graymail is a bit more nuanced than just straight-up spam. It's like that annoying email from the company you bought something from once, trying to sell you more stuff. Not malicious, but still a pain in the inbox.

Hmm, this is a tricky one. I'm not too sure about the difference between graymail and spam. Are they the same thing or is there a distinction?
