Add a toggle in settings to either disable or enable the newsletter view
With the recent implementation of the views/newsletter section. Add a toggle to either enable or disable it. Some users may not like it, but others may like it.

I REALLY don't like the newsletters feature, and here's why. I was shocked to find that even though I had unsubscribed from some mailing lists and deleted emails that were NOT mailing lists, the newsletters feature had recorded that message. I had to go and manually make three clicks to delete every single "newsletter" record of every email it had retained the metadata for, over 100 messages and 300 clicks. And now I have to maintain the cleanliness and privacy of my mailbox by logging into the Protonmail website frequently and clearing out the newsletters section even though I have already deleted the email. This is super freaking annoying.

For me, it seems that Proton Mail treats far too many incoming emails as newsletters. Coupled with the fact that this assignment often (always?) means that they do not show up in InBox, bot only in All Mail, this actually makes things more difficult.
Please allow the Newsletter View to be turned off by the hapless user. -

Please give us an option to disable this irritating clutter.

This is just feature creep and more clutter. It really should be optional.

This is super ridiculous. The persistent adding of "valuable" features without consent is what drove me to Proton. Don't fall into the well worn developers pattern of ens#%tification. Seriously!

I agree.
When this appeared I though NP, I have to assign emails to it.
BUT NO! PM autodecided for me.A simple ON/off option, we can "set auto move to folder" on incoming emails, which I did setuo.
BUT newsletters is overriding this grrrr -

I totally agree. This isn't for everyone, in fact it's not even for most people. The stunning thing is that this feature can be recreated easily with folders and filters if one wants such a thing. Putting it in the navigation pane, pushing actual useful content out of my view is counter-productive for me. I get no newsletters and I don't want any. This is just a sore thumb sticking up in my way. I hate the interface being cluttered up with things I won't use. This has got to be the idea of someone in marketing - ie someone who hasn't thought about users or cares about those who dislike it. A simple toggle for this obnoxious monstrosity sucking up valuable screen space would be very much appreciated for those who won't use it. Please address this very soon!

I'm not a newsletter person. If I get one, chances are I'm going to unsubscribe or mark it as spam. There will never be enough newsletters in my inbox for this "view" to be useful.
More generally, I don't get that much mail (by design) and don't let it pile up, so I'll never have enough messages of any kind for any automatic categorization of the inbox to be useful.
The whole "views" section is just clutter for me, and there should definitely be an option to turn it off.
