I stopped using Softlayer after IBM took over. I still get emails about the daily "incidents" in "IBM Cloud", as well as monthly billing notices for my $0 bill. I don't know my "IBM Id" or "Softlayer Id" to log in any more as it's been almost a decade, so I can't unsubscribe from any of it.

Sounds like a violation of the U.S. CAN SPAM Act.

Relationship messages (like incident reports and bills) aren't typically covered by the CAN SPAM Act, but that law's never stopped anyone anyway. I don't have enough fingers to count the number of daily commercial emails from otherwise respectable US businesses that don't include a mailing address or don't honor opt-out requests. Cold sales mails from tech startups are a big offender...
