Facilitate the reporting of an email as abuse (spam, etc.)
If the email is sent via a reputable vendor, it can be worth it to inform them their platform is used to send spam.

If an email comes from an entity listed at https://www.datarequests.org/company/, we could add a tool to facilitate a request via https://www.datarequests.org
- Get access to data about me.
- Delete (parts of) data about me.
- Correct data about me.
- Stop receiving direct marketing.

Some ideas for a UI:
For all emails, it should indicate the transactional email sender (ex.: salesforce.com, rediffmailpro.com, etc.)
And there should be a UI wizard to create banning rules. You click ban, and then it asks you:
- ban this sender email?
- ban this domain?
- ban this transactional email sender? (so if you recognize too many unwanted emails from then, just ban the whole domain)
Then, it asks you which action
- Reject
- Discard
- Redirect (so you could forward all such emails to abuse@)
