GMail has been making it harder to sign into old accounts, forcing me to verify my device and also add a phone number to my old email accounts, and then sometimes still refuses to let me sign in.
I think Googles spam detection is a bit too much lax when the sender itself is using gmail.
These might as well be hacked accounts which have already proven themselves to be valid and "human" at a previous point in time? I doubt gmails spam detection would let a brand new account spam CC'd emails without any sort of detection.
