You do realize there is AI programs that can unsubscribe from all of those? What astonishes me is the fact like companies think email marketing actually works 😂🤣 (I’m a marketer)

Make a new one. And start using that one for new things. Eventually youll have everything you need on that one. Use the old one for bs or things that seem sketch.

No like it's not completely random, just so many emails from a shop I used once, or some book club that my mom somehow gave my email to and they can't figure out how to remove me from their mailing list 😭
