Recipe: Newsletter Cleanup

Audit and prune newsletter subscriptions. Block the unwanted, unsubscribe from the noisy, and enable AI summaries for the ones worth keeping.

Prerequisite: Read the use-spark base skill for command reference and filter syntax.

Access level required: triage.

Steps

Step 1: List all newsletters

spark emails Inbox --filter "category:newsletter"

Review the senders. Look for patterns: senders the user never reads, duplicates, or obsolete subscriptions.

Step 2: Review individual newsletters

For each sender the user wants to evaluate:

spark thread <id>

Step 3: Remove unwanted subscriptions

For mailing lists with an unsubscribe mechanism:

spark action unsubscribe <id>

For senders that should be blocked entirely:

spark contact-action blockContact spammer@example.com

To block an entire domain:

spark contact-action blockDomain example.com

Step 4: Enable AI summaries for keepers

For newsletters the user wants to keep but not read in full:

spark contact-action enableAutosummaryForContact newsletter@example.com

Step 5: Group repetitive senders

For senders that send frequently, group their emails to reduce inbox clutter:

spark contact-action groupEmailsFromContact sender@example.com

Tips

  • Start with spark emails Inbox --filter "category:newsletter" --page-size 50 to see a broad list of senders.
  • Ask the user which senders they actually read before blocking anything.
  • unsubscribe works through the mailing list's unsubscribe mechanism - it's cleaner than blocking.
  • blockContact stops all future mail from appearing; blockDomain is more aggressive.
  • Auto-summary generates a brief AI summary at the top of each email from that sender - great for digests.
  • Grouping (groupEmailsFromContact) collapses repeated messages from the same sender into a single entry.
  • Run this recipe periodically (monthly) to keep the newsletter list pruned.

Find Reddit threads where people are genuinely asking for what you offer, then draft short, genuinely helpful replies — disclosing your affiliation honestly and naming your product only when it truly answers the question. Two moves: discovery — scan the right subreddits for real needs (recommendation asks, expressed pain, competitor mentions) and rank the few threads where you can actually help; drafting — write from real experience, respect each community's self-promo rules, and keep a human in the loop to review and post. This markets on Reddit the honest way: contribute value, disclose who you are, never astroturf. Distilled from the playbook behind doany.ai's Reddit agent. Triggers on "find reddit opportunities", "reddit marketing", "reddit automation", "reply on reddit for my product", "reddit community engagement", "reddit lead gen", or any ask to turn Reddit threads into genuine, disclosed marketing replies.
