Moodle - User suspended for spamming - Google Workspace

One of our servers running Moodle uses a Google Workspace account for emailing notifications to users. That account was suspended "for spamming". 

Checking, the issue seems to be that there is a forum message "Please post your feedback" - and people were copy-pasting matter as their feedback. (Or are they real users or are they spammers?)

Due to this, the spam filters have been triggered.

I am going to change the default setting of default forum subscriptions for new users from "every post separate email" to "daily digest of subject".
