And there is no option like "Don't send me news about xyz"?

To be honest, I never looked. But now that you mention it, I do see a link for unsubscribing from marketing emails.

...the impossible takes slightly longer.

Now that link only needs to work

Failing that, if you're giving them money, I'd say do it the old fashioned way and pick up the phone and call them. If you represent any value to them, I'm sure something will be done...time you spend on the phone with their sales reps to complain is time they don't get to spend with other customers.

I'm so glad I wasn't drinking anything when I read that reply.

Oh, I know !
Fortunately my domain doesn't get nearly enough traffic to qualify for being auto-enrolled.

I use them for domain registration -- I have about 23 -- but it does not host any of the websites. I get one email from them, maybe, ever week. I have them automatically sent to my "probably spam" folder, as the only meaningful communication I ever get from them is "your registration will expire in six months: RENEW NOW FOR 100 YEARS BEFORE YOU LOSE IT!!1!"

If that link to remove yourself from the commercial/sales list is not functional (that would not be the first time to happen) you could add a new rule in your e-mail client, in those cases I end up marking the e-mails as read, and sending them automatically to the trash folder, then before removing everything I check the subject lines and if they are spam I flush the trash folder.
Good luck Richard!

My domains are (anonymously) registered with them, but the only time I get emails is when my domains come up for renewal.

I have a few domains with them and I don't get any spam from them other than to let me know if I need to take any actions on the domains.
Perhaps you opted in to marketing from them?

If I did, it was probably one of those misleading UI's that made me do it!

I did and now I don't for the same reason.
Plus I found out I was paying too much.
We have two domains now with namecheap.com - They rock like no other.
They NEVER spam you except the will let you know when the domain need registering.
I was turned on to them by a web dude I know and have never looked back
Like 10 - 12 bucks a year man.
Stuff that NS!

Mark them a spam and let the filter do the work for you.

I was waiting for this for my Playbook, I'm guessing it will never happen now.

I thought the London Olymipcs were going to be a shambles, but they worked out very well.
Sochi[^] may not be so fortunate.

I think the London Olympics rewrote the books on just what an Olympic celebration is, it was that good,, relevant, modern, and absoloutely a celebration of what Britain is to the world today. Its going to be a very hard act to follow.
