Steam has trading cards. Great. Now I have a bunch of nigh-worthless digital bits to get rid of.
Fortunately, the Market provides an easy way to do that! I can recoup pennies on the dollar from the cost of my poor choices during a given Steam sale by selling the trading cards!
However, since they're only worth a nickel or three, I don't really care that any given card has sold. I do however, want to know when the occasional valuable item sells for a buck or three, and I also don't want to just blacklist the email address to my spam folder, because it's the same address that Important Things like receipts for my ill-advised purchases comes from.
Is there any way to get Steam to throttle these notifications so that my phone will stop beeping every 9 seconds with a notification that my FTL card that I never cared about has sold for 12 cents?

I'm afraid there's no way to opt out of these recipt emails from Steam. However, if you use Gmail, you can create a filter.
