Tax Act sends multiple promotional emails daily. Attempting to unsubscribe does nothing, and I’ve tried for months.

Finally, today, I opened the browser dev console and see that it’s throwing JS errors when you attempt to save. I’m 100% sure this is a feature and not a bug. The only other way they will remove you is by writing a physical letter and mailing it out to them.

Moral of the story: Do not use TaxAct. Fuck Tax Act.

    I’ve been using them to report spammers (including companies who can’t be bothered to fix their mailing list unsubscription mechanisms). It works by parsing mail headers, identifying the origin of the email and submitting email abuse reports to the operators of the relays that processed the unwanted email.

      Oh, nice. Will check that out.

      I run my own mail server, and I can train on identified spam, but I’m not large or important enough to really have my spam reports honored by any major players/filters.

      That sounds like it may fill that gap. thanks!
