[GNC] UNSUBCRIBE and Lemmy.World

[Kalpesh Patel]

If the e-mail client is configured via IMAP access to email server, then whatever email is deleted on your client is also removed from your server so you don't need to clean up multiple times... IMAP keeps "one" view for all of the email clients that access those emails.

My outlook client is configured to move messages to 'Deleted Item' and then it is further configured to delete them permanently after 30 days. One rule has multiple email addresses of all the sources which should go to 'Deleted Items' automatically.

Go to explore the capabilities of the tools to employ for various tasks...

If you are an EMAIL user (not WEBMAIL) then your email client (Outlook, Thunderbird, etc.) almost certainly provides a facility for you to create "message filter rules". You can then add a rule so that emails coming from a particular source (say this email list) get moved to a dedicated folder instead of appearing in your inbox). The only emails that show up in the inbox here are ones for which I haven't written a rule.

Then you either sift through them in this other folder or not depending on whether you have time. Nor do they have to take up space in that folder forever as you can specify retention policy for that folder.

Webmail users --- I have no idea if whatever provider you are using offers similar facilities.
