Email/Forum spam pet peeve

Over the past year I’ve made it my mission to simplify my email system so I get only the things that I want or need and I eliminate the rest.

The things that keep finding their way into my inbox over and over are emails from forums that I haven’t used in years, or ever at all, that want me to come back and the only way I can get rid of them and unsubscribe is to login to that very forum that I haven’t touched in forever to uncheck some box somewhere on my profile page.

I’ve tried email rules in Mail to prevent them from coming through but somehow they manage to find their way onto my iPhone or just plain creep into my inbox.

No, Airsoft Forum, I don’t want your bi-monthly forum newsletter about the ongoings of your forum. I haven’t touched an airsoft gun since 8th grade. I’ve retired from your hobby, stop emailing me!
