Google is reportedly adding an unsubscribe button to Gmail to help users stay clear of unwanted promotional messages.
The unsubscribe button is said to automatically appear in the header of emails that it perceives as unwanted messages from marketers.

Google's unsubscribe option began to roll out soon after the company announced the new feature at an event last week.
