Certain policies are in place to protect users while discouraging other users from abusing the platform.

The tech giant expanded on this in a blog post, noting that users are not allowed to spam or otherwise abuse the service.

Gmail users are also not allowed to spread viruses through the platform or other Google apps like Docs, Sheets, and Photos.

“If Google identifies a Gmail user who is violating these agreements, we reserve the right to immediately suspend the user,” the company writes.

“If the issue is domain-wide, we reserve the right to suspend the entire account and deny admin access to all Google Workspace services,” they added.

Should this happen to a user, Google will send a notification to the domain administrator’s registered secondary email address.

When you identify spam

Google also shared some helpful tips for users who see spam or abuse and want to report it.

“Report abuse by a Gmail user violating these agreements on your domain or any other domain to Google,” the company said.

“Send a message to Abuse@ or postmaster@using the domain where the abuse is taking place,” added Google.

The tech giant provided an example: “If you suspect a solarmora.com user is abusing the service, send a message to abuse@solarmora.com or to postmaster@solarmora.com.”

Google monitors these addresses for each domain registered with Google Workspace.

The company also added: “You can’t use abuse And postmaster as usernames or aliases for your domain as they are reserved aliases.

“However, you can subscribe to these addresses and you will receive all messages sent to these addresses.”
