As far as solving your immediate problem I'm pretty sure gmail will automatically ferret out unsubscribe links and offers an easy button located in the same place at the top of each email. It seems like this could be ripe for automation, either using gmail's api or locally using something like puppeteer. Oh look, here is a script that might work: www.github.com/labnol/unsubscribe-gmail Going forward I recommend ditching the one-email-address-to-rule-them-all mindset as it is a liability. For a few bucks a year you can rent a domain name then make a wildcard rule to forward every address@your.domain to an account you check. Then generate a unique address for every sender. Some people will use a hash or keep some other secret sender<->address database, but sender-name@your.domain is a simple system that has worked for me in the past. After you get that set up you can create some filters so you only hear from senders you've authorized. Then if an address gets compromised or abused not only can you simply blackhole and burn the address, but you immediately know what party let you down.
