        @s3leb disavowing links can take a lot of time to see results, if you have access to the links much better to remove them manually. Also you can increase high quality low spam links to override the existing ones as Google will ignore spam backlinks since last year's spam update.

          Check your spam filter settings: Ensure that your spam filter is properly configured and not blocking legitimate emails. Adjust the sensitivity level if necessary.

          Update your spam filter software: Make sure you have the latest version of your spam filter software installed. Updates often include improvements and adjustments to the spam detection algorithms.

          Whitelist trusted senders: If you're consistently receiving legitimate emails in your spam folder, add the email addresses or domains to your whitelist or contacts list. This action helps your email client recognize these senders as safe.

          Report false positives: If you come across legitimate emails in your spam folder, mark them as "not spam" or move them to your inbox. This feedback can help train the spam filter and improve its accuracy over time.

          Contact your email service provider: If the issue persists, reach out to your email service provider's support team for assistance. They may be able to investigate the problem further or provide guidance on adjusting spam filter settings

              Google Disavow File Format and MOZ Spam Score Updates

              Hi, Is there a defined file format for Google disavow file name? Does it has to be disavowlinks.txt or can we do this like domain-name-date.txt ? Also, since Google does not share their data with Moz, how does MOz updates its spam score after we disavow the bad links? Do we need to connect Google search console with Moz?
