How do I stop receiving emails from Substack?

When you subscribe to a publication on Substack, free or paid, we automatically create a Substack account for you.

We'll send occasional marketing emails about new features or recommend other publications to read.

To stop receiving emails from Substack, follow these steps:

1. Click on your profile icon and select Settings (https://substack.com/settings) from the drop-down menu.
