That's why I don't use them.

I have my own labels.

I assume Google figures out which Dumb... I mean Smartlabel to use, by
scanning incoming messages and looking for keywords or phrases.  Something
that looks like a notification (presumably of an upcoming event) is given
the Notification label.

Finally, the Smartlabels lab says Report mis-categorized email from the

That must be the drop-down menu in the upper right corner of the message,
with the small down-pointing triangle/pyramid, next to the curved arrow
that means Reply.  I'm sure you know what I'm talking about.  I think
you're right about what it was time to do: Zzzz.  :-)
