How do I stop receiving bulk emails?

Bulk emails from legitimate and reputable sources should always give you an option to unsubscribe and stop receive them. You should see an option to opt-out by looking down at the bottom of the email or in the footer. If not, you can always block an email sender and you will no longer receive them in your inbox.

If you have any questions, please reach out to the IT Service Desk.
