What’s up with all the E-Mails from Plex over the past month or so? Really thirsty…
Could you check if all of those emails have been adressed to the same email address?
(inspect those email headers)
Also, you might want to check this preference page: Email Preferences | Plex
I do not really notice any “extra” emails. Of course I use a filter in my client (Thunderbird)) that moves all “Plex” emails to my trash folder and marks them read. I also do that to most emails that are sent to me. I get about 50 or so emails a day and about one or two are worth reading.
The vast majority of company emails are trash anyway and I just treat them as such. I, once a day, go through my trash and try to see if there are any worth reading. Usually there is not. Even the “warning” emails are trash. They do not help me at all and they simply waste my time.
As far as I am concerned Plex can send me 100s of emails a day. It will not cause me any consternation at all. But it would emphasize just how worthless most emails are.
Huh. I haven’t gotten a single email from Plex other than the one advising me to change my password, and the one thanking me for buying the Plex Pass 2 years ago.
It is probably something in email preferences. I usually just accept the default settings about email. It is easier to just filter after the fact than it is to search around to find the settings and then to disable most all of them.
I just do not want to have to be concerned about what trash anybody might send me.
Yes, I’m not sure what is going on. I don’t pay the E-Mails any attention and just delete them,…I will watch out for the next one and report back. Over the past month or so, I probably have received MANY DOZENS of E-Mails from Plex to upgrade this, or subscribe to this or whatever. I have never been E-Mailed before like this from Plex, so I dunno if it’s spam or what but I’ll check when the next one comes and report back…
I have always felt that any unsolicited email is spam. Yes a VERY few have value but most emails from any company if I did not ask for them explicitly then they are junk. I have exactly one email address that I use for nothing except the companies I trust and want to deal with and I still get spam on that one.
One way to reduce problem possibilities is to use an email like the ones offered by DuckDuckGo. It strips all trackers out of the emails and then forwards them to your regular email. I use a couple of DuckDuckGo’s emails for almost all problematic and many “safe” websites.
Also DuckDuckGo can generate temporary email addresses that look like “1kzsdof5rx6@Duck.com” whenever you fill out one of those email sign-in screens and then, if you want to block that sender, all you need to do is go to the Duck email site and remove the email that was generated.
Personally I REALLY like the DuckDuckGo email system.
Just received an E-Mail a bit ago today. Took screenshot of the E-Mail address from my phone but forgot to take a shot of the mail itself. It was another advertisement.
