Subscription Emails

Hi Guys

First time poster here. 

I just wondered how you deal with the mass of emails that come through after you've been entering competitions. Some of these are obviously a proviso of entry but do you enter then unsubscribe or just leave them coming through as my inbox is already starting to fill and need cleansing daily.

Thanks :)

    I usually have a massive purge in January, after the Advents

    I use a different yahoo email address for competitions so I'm not getting all those emails into my regular email. 
    I scan through them to check for winning emails then delete them all. 
  • Thanks guys. I wasn't sure whether competition providers overlook you if you immediately unsubscribe if its a competition term...
