What seems to help in individual cases is to reply to real but otherwise
unwanted mails and remind the sender of GDPR violation. I got several
sources to stop sending me such mails. When using a templated answer, it
takes 5 seconds to do so.

Also, the correspondence may come handy later, should evidence need to
be presented.
