@keila@fosstodon.org For me that one's strongly associated with "notification", which is slightly in a different direction? (but what's also nice is that it emphasizes the disabling of being-kept-in-the-loop vs. rejecting the content per se, so that'd be a plus) Other options I can think of right now: "Slider off" (these ones famously have a problem with recognizability of on/off state, but given they are augmented with a textual description this could be fine? :) what I like about these is that they also don't use "-" or "x" or strike-through, which makes them very neutral and calm) https://thenounproject.com/icon/turn-off-4409441/ https://thenounproject.com/icon/turn-off-7679864/ https://thenounproject.com/icon/turn-off-3388054/ "Mail -" or "Mail X", for lack of a better description :D https://thenounproject.com/icon/do-not-contact-145232/ https://thenounproject.com/icon/mail-delete-2322535/ Edit: Updated a few times to add more thoughts :)

    @freebliss@post.lurk.org I don't think sliders should be used as icons because they are usually clickable UI elements. A crossed out envelope makes sense but we'd have to create our own. I'm open for more suggestions though!

    @freebliss@post.lurk.org @keila@fosstodon.org I was going to suggest a mailbox or envelope icon.
