How to Unsubscribe From Twitter / X.com Emails

Stopping Twitter / X.com Emails the Smart Way

When we looked at the inbox actions of 10,292 Clean Email users in 2025, Twitter — now rebranded as X.com — stood out for all the wrong reasons. It didn’t just land in the list of most frequently unsubscribed senders. It also appeared in the spam list. That double ranking says a lot: people are simply worn down by the constant pings and digests this platform pushes out.

A Cleaner Way to Say Goodbye to Twitter Emails

If you’ve ever tried turning off Twitter notifications from inside your account settings, you know it’s a maze of toggles. Clean Email’s Unsubscriber feature is a much simpler route. Instead of chasing settings across the app, you can take care of it in just a few clicks.

💡 If your email account is two years old or older, make sure you also check for senders from twitter.com in addition to x.com — older accounts almost always have messages tied to the original domain.

Here’s how:

1. Open Clean Email.
2. Go to the Unsubscriber section.
3. Type Twitter in the search bar.
4. Select the sender (senders) and hit Unsubscribe.

⚠️ Warning: It’s safe to block or unsubscribe from the info@ and notify@ senders, but keep emails from verify@twitter.com and password@twitter.com since these are critical for account security and recovery.

5. Repeat the same steps above for searching X.com and unsubscribing from it except verify@x.com

How to Delete Twitter / Х Email Notifications From Your Inbox

Unsubscribing stops future messages, but what about the pile of old Twitter emails already sitting in your inbox? Clean Email makes it simple to remove those too.

• On the last step of unsubscribing, just toggle on “Move existing messages to Trash” before you click Confirm. This will immediately clear out all past emails from that sender (see the last step on the screenshot above).
• At any point, you can also delete by sender in one move. Since Clean Email automatically groups emails by sender, simply select the package from, for example, info@twitter.com, then choose Trash (to send them to your mail’s trash folder) or Delete (to remove them permanently).

With either option, you can wipe out years of Twitter notifications in just a single action.

Other Ways to Unsubscribe from Twitter / X.com Emails

There’s more than one way to make your Twitter emails a thing of the past. Choose the method to turn off Twitter emails that’s easiest for you:

Can People See Your Email on Twitter?

By default, Twitter (X.com) does not display your email address publicly on your profile. Other users can’t see it when they visit your account. However, your email is still tied to your account for login, password resets, and security alerts.

That means if your Twitter account ever gets hacked, the attacker could view your account settings, where your registered email address is stored. While hidden from the public, it becomes accessible to anyone who takes control of your account. Once they have your email, they can misuse it in a couple of ways:

• Credential stuffing: testing your email on other websites and apps, hoping you reused the same email-and-password combo. If you did, those accounts could also be compromised.
• Phishing: sending fake “reset password” or “security alert” emails to trick you into giving up login credentials for other accounts.

This is why using a unique email address for Twitter, combined with strong passwords and two-factor authentication, is so important. It limits the damage even if your account is hacked.

Check if Your Twitter Email Was Exposed with Privacy Monitor

Clean Email helps you take this one step further with its Privacy Monitor tool. This feature automatically checks the email address you signed up with against known data breaches and alerts you if your information has ever been exposed.

How to check your Privacy Monitor:

1. Sign up or log into Clean Email using the same email address connected to your Twitter (X) account.
2. From the main dashboard, open Privacy Monitor.
3. The tool will instantly show whether that email has appeared in any known data leaks.

What to do if a leak is found:

• Immediately change your X password (and any other accounts using the same email/password combo).
• Enable two-factor authentication to secure logins.
• If leaks are repeated, consider assigning a separate email just for X, keeping your main inbox isolated.

How to Spot Fake Emails Pretending to Be from X

Phishing emails that mimic Twitter or X are common, and they’re designed to trick you into clicking links or giving away your login details. The good news: there are clear warning signs if you know what to look for.

Common red flags include:

• Sender addresses that aren’t from official X domains (like @x.com or @e.x.com) or use misspellings and free email providers.
• Generic greetings (“Dear user”) instead of your actual name.
• Strange subject lines with typos, odd punctuation, or random emojis.
• Offers that seem too good to be true.
• Urgent or threatening language — “Your account will be locked today!”
• Bad grammar and spelling errors you wouldn’t see in a real X email.
• Links that don’t match the displayed URL, use shorteners, or lead to unsecured sites.
• Emails with poor design, blurry logos, or mismatched branding.
• Requests for sensitive info or passwords. X will never ask for your password or send attachments in an email.

These tactics are all about creating urgency so you click without thinking. Whenever you see an email that feels suspicious, don’t click anything. Instead, log in directly to X.com to check your account.

How to Remove Your Email from Twitter (X.com)

If you’d like to detach your current email from your Twitter account, you can do so directly in your account settings:

1. Log in to Twitter (X.com).
2. Go to Settings → Your Account → Account information → Email.
3. Enter a new email address or choose to remove the existing one.
