If you disable downloading images in your emails, the recruiters will eventually stop emailing you.

Nah.. I’ve had it disabled for years and still receive daily recruiter email.

Amazon is definitely the most frequent in the bunch, has been for years. At least 1-2 nice customized email a month.

I'm using Fastmail with that feature enabled (download images only when the sender is in your contacts) but it doesn't prevent them from emailing me at least once per week.
