I’m helping my older neighbor deal with tons of spam email that she’s getting. For dealing with spam I thought about using thunderbird with with some extensions and making comprehensive filters. To reduce the volume in the future I thought about using deleteme and simplelogin so that her information doesn’t continue to be spread.
Anyone have thoughts on the approach or maybe improvements that could be better?
I dramatically reduced my spam by switching to proton email and requesting removal at the big data brokers. Inteltechniques.com has a list of data brokers and how to request removal of each. There are a ton of brokers but I just did the big 6-8 brokers that they recommend starting with. I went from hundreds of spam a day down to 20-30. YMMV.

I should clarify. I have zero spam at my new email Addy and 20-30 at my old hotmail account.
