　　It doesn’t matter who you are: if you use email, then you get spam email. Spam email is a fact of life, no matter how much you try to control the flow of it with filters and other blocks.

　　Here’s how it works. Whenever you get an email in your Gmail inbox that contains an unsubscribe link, Google will take it, and place it all the way at the top of the message to the right of the sender’s email address. This makes it much easier for you to find.

　　Though it’s nice that these emails come with an unsubscribe link to begin with, they are usually placed all the way at the bottom of the message, effectively burying it under everything else in that email. Plus, in many cases, the unsubscribe link provided by the sender is written out in a much smaller font size than the rest of the email is.

　　In other words, the sender provides a way to unsubscribe from their emails, but makes a pretty good effort to try to hide it from you in many instances.

　　“Making the unsubscribe option easy to find is a win for everyone,” Google says. “For email senders, their mail is less likely to be marked as spam and for you, you can now say goodbye to sifting through an entire message for that one pesky link.”
