Getting thousands of unwanted emails is a waking nightmare.
- "Reply all" messages can become a nuisance, especially if you're trying to get work done and the messages have nothing to do with you.
- To hide notifications from ever-growing email threads, Gmail users can go to a drop-down menu above the thread and click "Mute."
- Whatever you do, don't ask to be removed from the thread via "reply all." Otherwise, you'll be trapped in an email hellscape like employees at Microsoft or NHS.

Thankfully, Gmail has a quick fix for that: the "Mute" button.
Here's how you find it.
