Regardless of which e-mail service you end up using, I find that an incredible simple rule to filter all e-mail with the word “unsubscribe” in it’s body to another folder saves your sanity. It’s still a folder you should go through a few times a week to read all the newsletters and shit you’re subscribed to, and sometimes the occasional false positive, but your inbox will mostly contain e-mail you actually want to read. I have another rule that filters mail from specific senders that I want to read immediately to my Inbox before it hits the unsubscribe rule, but those exceptions are uncommon enough (I only have 7 after years of doing this) to not take much work.

Do you not sign up for any newsletters?

You can manually add an exception to the rule for trusted senders.

Yes, those go to the “unsubscribe” folder, so I read them less often than my normal mail.

you can use kill-the-newsletter to receive those via rss

Doesn’t work, in my experience.
