How can I stop receiving the monthly emails from PlentyofFish about where the site is, how many people are using it, bla bla bla and a whole bunch of other stuff I don't need to know or already know cause they send the dang email EVERY MONTH.

I don't want them anymore.
I use the site enough to not need to be reminded to use the site.

Unfortunately, the only items you can unsubscribe from, are in your MAIL SETTINGS

I thought that was the case.

I want the option to not be notified every month.

I'm sure other people want the option too.

And here I will talk some more and more because my message is too short.
Even though I've already said everything I need to say about email notices.

that's a good point.

Monthly or weekly emails about new matches or anything else, may be a good way to reach people who don't log in often.

But if someone logs in to this site daily, do they really need occassional notices that they have new matches, or any other reminder that the site exists?

Virtually every E-Mail Client/Service nowadays, whether provided by your ISP or Online, has built-in Spam Filters so you can choose what E-Mails you would like to block.

Use it !!! Then you'll never see one again.

We only send out the new matches email.

Anything else is a faked email. Getting complaints about people using fake plentyoffish addresses to send out spam

Not every isp offers spam filtering and or course if you run your own mail servers this does not help.

I have some addresses that go back to the 80s... they now get 4000 spams an *hour*. I've actually found books with them in there. Greaaaat.

What I've found worked better than things like spamassassin or popfilter is Gmail. You forward you rmail to Gmail then forward that to an unknown private address. It works amazingly well. To be sure I still get a couple of spams a day but I can live with that.

SPF records work to cut down on forged spam. it's just a TXT record in your DNS. There's a "wizard" out there someplace that generates the correct SPF records for your domain(s).

Some sites, such as hotmail won't even accept mail from servers without SPF records although this is hit and miss - sometimes they do sometimes they don't and when they don't they just drop the mail on the floor with no notice to sender or recipient.

The weekly matches email should be optional. Why should I continue to use a service that I have to treat like a spammer? There's other sites that are thoughtful enough to not do this. I'm quitting now
