  Every time I do something an email is sent to me.  I sent them automatically to trash and now my trash is overflowing.  How can I reduce the number the game send me?

  Some messages are essential (for WGT). Alas, in the contact menu of your account, there are six types of messages to deactivate.

  Mmmm... just play less? Sorry, just kidding. AFAIK, you can't. What you can do though is you can set your email trash bin to clear out automatically every X days. Mine is set to empty every 10 days.

  Sorry to be blunt, but I don't understand how trash can be overwhelming. It takes about 2 seconds to empty trash. 

  I probably get a lot more emails than most, and I have no trouble managing my workflow with virtually no disruption to my day.

  WHAT!?! ARE YOU KIDDING ME! IT TAKES ME TWO CLICKS! THAT'S TWO! I HAVE TO HIT EMPTY FOLDER... PLUS VERIFY THAT I WANT TO EMPTY FOLDER! THAT'S TOO CLICKS! 

  AND DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA WHAT WILL HAPPEN IF I DON'T EMPTY THE TRASH? THERE WILL BE A NUMBER SHOWING ME HOW MUCH TRASH I HAVE! THIS EXTRA TRASH HAS TO STOP! 

  Note: it's been a long pandemic... I may need to get out more.

  If you got to your Account/Contact Info you can untick a few boxes of what you want to receive from WGT.

  How can you possibly be overflowing after 3 days?

   

  Take everyone's advice and simply change your settings

  That's classic. Love the use of the all caps and bolding. It's the details that make a great post. 😀

  Thanks for the help, NrEighteen.  I hope this COVID thing clears up soon.  There are people out there that are going to have a stroke.
