How to Unsubscribe from Emails on Outlook

Why You Should Unsubscribe from Emails on Outlook?

The available limit for a free Outlook.com account is 15 GB of mail storage. While that may sound like a lot at first, more active users can easily approach this limit in just a few years. Fortunately, you can make your free account last a lot longer just by proactively unsubscribing from emails that no longer interest you.

Besides enjoying more storage space, you also won't have to spend nearly as much time managing your inbox as you would if you were to just let subscription emails pile on, which means more time to spend on things that matter the most in life.

Since Outlook provides a native solution for managing email subscriptions, you can clean up your inbox without any third-party tools. Of course, that doesn't mean that you shouldn't consider using Outlook unsubscribe apps because the features they offer are definitely worth the cost.

How to Unsubscribe from Emails Using the Outlook.com Unsubscribe Button

As an Outlook.com user, you can unsubscribe from emails with just a few clicks - no Outlook unsubscribe plugin or other third-party solution required. Here's what you need to do:

1. Log in to your inbox.
2. Click the Settings gear icon on the right side of the top toolbar.
3. Click the View all Outlook settings option at the bottom.
4. Go to Mail → Subscriptions.
5. Click the Unsubscribe button next to each and every subscription in which you're no longer interested.

Keep in mind that the list of active subscriptions doesn't include senders you've added to Blocked senders and domains.

You should also notice that there are three horizontal dots next to the Unsubscribe button. When you click on them, an option that lets you block the email address associated with the particular subscription appears.

The main difference between unsubscribing and blocking is that the former prevents any emails coming from the blocked sender from reaching your inbox - not just newsletters with subscription information.

How to Unsubscribe from Emails on the Outlook Mobile App

The latest version of the Outlook mobile app scans messages for unsubscribe links and displays a convenient unsubscribe option at the top of the message, above the sender information. This makes it really straightforward to opt out since all you need to do is the following:

1. Launch the mobile app.
2. Open any subscription message.
3. Click the unsubscribe option at the bottom or at the top of the message.
4. Confirm your choice.

Unfortunately, the unsubscribe option doesn't always appear because some marketers obfuscate unsubscribe links in their messages to discourage their recipients from unsubscribing. In such situations, you can unsubscribe from emails without a link using a third-party Outlook unsubscribe app, such as Clean Email (more about it in the last chapter).

How to Unsubscribe from Emails on the Desktop Version of Microsoft Outlook

The desktop version doesn't provide a convenient option for unsubscribing, but you can still stop unwanted subscription emails from ending up in your inbox by blocking their sender. Here's how:

1. Go to https://outlook.live.com/
2. Open any message sent to you by a sender from which you no longer wish to receive emails.
3. Click the Junk option in the top action bar.
4. Click the drop down arrow next to Junk action and select Block Sender from the drop down list.

The Block Sender option will prevent any messages coming from the sender's email address from reaching your inbox. If that's not what you want to happen, then you can opt out manually or use a dedicated Outlook unsubscribe app, such as the one described in the next section of this article.
