Newsletter that I didn't subscribe to? One strike, you're out (unsubscribe and occasionally report as spam).
Updates from sites I care about (e.g. bank, HOA, etc) that come more than once a year? Create an email filter (gmail -> filter messages like this), skip inbox, never mark as important, apply label XYZ.
These simple hygiene measures don't take more than a few minutes each week and save tons of time and focus.
