Pinterest’s help turns off its emails with one toggle under Settings, then Notifications, and lets you keep the types you like. Pinterest also says it only sends from addresses ending in @pinterest.com, which makes the Gmail filter a single domain.

A filter needs the sender's domain. Batmail's rules only need a sentence.

Pinterest says you might still receive an email or two after that, because its email system takes a few days to update.

Pinterest says it always sends from addresses ending in @pinterest.com, so the filter is one domain.

Pinterest’s page on telling its emails apart says it will always send from addresses that end in @pinterest.com, with @info.pinterest.com and @account.pinterest.com as examples. A search on the domain matches every one of them.
