Explanation

When a large volume of legitimate emails are being broadly misidentified as spam across an organization, the Google-recommended best practice is to contact Google Workspace Support to report a suspected system-wide spam filter malfunction. This is because large-scale false-positive spam filtering issues are often tied to backend filter updates or anomalies that only Google can investigate and correct. Option A (adjusting mail content compliance settings) is not the correct tool for spam tuning. Option B (advising users to individually allowlist senders) does not scale and is not a root-cause fix. Option C (disabling spam filtering for all users) is a severe security risk and not recommended.
