nonspam
Real inbox messages
Nonspam refers to legitimate email or messages that are not unsolicited bulk advertising—the opposite of spam.
Email filters and security systems categorize incoming messages as either spam or nonspam, with nonspam being the desired correspondence that should reach your inbox.
The filter incorrectly flagged several nonspam messages as junk.
The term appears almost exclusively in technical contexts involving email filtering and machine learning classification systems.
