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@)
