In their own words
Trimbox
Trimbox helps Gmail users reduce unwanted mail by finding mailing lists and older messages, then offering tools to unsubscribe, delete, and block future messages. Users can unsubscribe from a list with one action; if the list requires a formal request, Trimbox can send one. To clear older mail, users can delete messages from a sender in one action. Those messages move to Trash and are permanently removed after 30 days. Trimbox can also create editable Gmail filters to block unwanted senders. The maker says email data stays on the user’s device and is never shared, and that Trimbox is verified by Google. The service needs access to a Gmail account to find mailing lists and delete old junk mail. Trimbox is available as an extension, in a browser for Gmail, and as a mobile app on Android and iOS. The App Store listing says users can connect unlimited email accounts, but the free plan covers the first 10 unsubscribes; a subscription unlocks unlimited unsubscribes. The listed free plan is free.
