Whose your email provider? Or do you self-host? If you have a provider you can report the spam to them so they can update their systems.

I’m using Google. I’ve done that too. protecting inboxes is step one for sure, but i also want to know the extent of this. it’s not enough for me to just block the emails and leave it at that.
if it keeps coming and i fail to block them all i want to have some info on the intent of this so I can properly educate others i work with to defend ourselves

Oh, we have a self-hosted exchange behind a watchguard and protected by Trend Micro. I haven’t seen very many of these emails you mentioned and it could be because of them. Though I can say we do get spam and malicious emails relentlessly from Gmail aliases.

Watch out for email footers like “This is important account information. You cannot unsubscribe from these emails.”.

oh, yeah. it’s not perfect but it sure does remove so much crap i don’t intend to read.
i recently missed an event invite because of it… luckily i was just a late responder and have not actually missed the event itself
i definitely have to “browse” the unimportant emails regularly
