Every day, my inbox gets clogged by endless marketing, promotional and publicity emails that make it hard to quickly assess which emails are important and which ones aren’t.
When I started noticing the same marketing email addresses land in my inbox each week, I decided to take action. The Federal Trade Commission requires companies to provide an easy way to opt out of email communications and to honour those requests in a timely manner under the CAN-SPAM Act. In reality, opting out can mean hunting for obscured unsubscribe buttons that are barely legible.
But there’s one quick way to clear up a cluttered inbox that doesn’t involve any scrolling: I used a common Gmail hack to review every subscription my email address was subscribed to to see what I could cut. I recommend that you do the same.
Here’s how: Copy and paste this link in your browser and simply replace the word “inbox” in the link https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#inbox with the word “sub.” It should read https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#sub<...
