  If that email is actually from Logitech, it probably has some way to unsubscribe. Might have added you for some nonsense reason like a warranty registration, but I’ve never hit problems with a reputable company not providing a way to unsubscribe.

  The random scam stuff…yeah, probably can’t do much about that.

    I set the mail server to bounce everything that doesn’t match dkim.

    I almost don’t receive spam anymore.

    The problem is that sometimes some legitimate services didn’t configure their email server correctly

      Wait, mail providers don’t block DKIM misconfiguration by default??

    You don’t need a new system to do this and in fact can do it yourself. The issue comes in with signing up for new accounts, etc. Unfortunately there’s all sorts of different domains that emails can come from even with a single provider.

  You shouldn’t give out your real email address. I instead use randomly generated email addresses that forwards emails to my real one. I can easily deactivate any forwarding email address and therefore stop any unwanted emails.

  It works really well and also has other benefits like for example knowing who sold your information if you start receiving spam.

  You also gain a bit of privacy and security from being a tiny bit harder to track and your credentials being less valuable in the case that the company you gave the random address to has a data breach.

  This video explains the concept very well.
