LinkedIn is the most popular professional network to connect with like-minded people and even companies. When you create a new LinkedIn account with your email address, the service turns on an alert and sends the latest updates to your email account. Sometimes, you can get overwhelmed with too many emails coming in during business hours. Thankfully, you can stop those LinkedIn emails.
Your Gmail and Outlook inboxes have limited storage space. Unnecessary emails from LinkedIn can fill up inbox space in no time. Besides, most emails from LinkedIn are probably irrelevant and can be avoided. Read along to learn how to unsubscribe and stop receiving emails from LinkedIn.
