Hi everyone,
In my on-going attempt to reduce the amount of crap finding its way into my email inbox, I've begun to remove my email address from email list affiliated with web sites. You know, the kind that sends you deals of the day, customer favorites, product recommendations, sales, etc.
Keep in mind, these aren't SPAM sites. These are normal, reputable sites which I still visit regularly. I just don't want their emails unless I specifically place an order. All of these web sites include an unsubscribe link and, since they're reputable, the link works.
Maybe someone can explain to me why the sites can take up to 10 or more days to remove the address from their mailing address. It takes less than a second to get onto the list. I enter my email address and a second or two later i have an email from the site in my inbox. But, nearly two weeks to remove my address from the mailing list?
Any ideas as to why this is the case? It seems like garbage to me.
