You know that “unsubscribe” button in lists? IF it works at all, it means “unsubscribe from THAT list”, not from the server or other lists that will be created and not even from the same list that will be recreated in the future.

So, “it won’t happen again” simply means with that person (in that restroom).

I made a donation the other day l, carefully unchecked the newsletter box, and immediately got a newsletter in my inbox (a donation confirmation would have been fine).

Whatever, easy to manage, but come on!

When that happens I immediately report it as spam. Enough of those reports and they start getting filtered automatically for everyone.

It's a pain in the ass to get off those lists, even when you end up on them erroneously and there's no actual spam messages that got you there. Getting off when there's an actual digital trail and real reports is even harder.
