I don't follow. I've been in apartment building where it appeared it was management policy to post eviction notices on doors if the tenant is a day late with rent. If they pay then the eviction process isn't continued.
Those aren't eviction notices; they are either reminders or 3 day pay or quit notice.
Our rent due on the first...late fees start on the third....3 day pay and quit are posted on the 4th at 0800....eviction proceedings start at 0800 on the 8th day. The eviction notice is taped to the door, by a deputy on the 10th or so day (sometimes the 12th or 14th) and yes, we can all see them and read them.....those notices aren't shy.
It's perfectly legal to post notices on the door...we get them all the time reminding us of pest control, fire service, whatever...not all notices are bad.
I have never been reminded when my rent is due. I have signed a lease or made a verbal agreement regarding the date the rent is due. Any responsible adult should be able to remember when their rent is due and if it is not paid on time it is the renter's choice to pay the late fee.
In a nutshell and ditto, both as tenant and landlord. It's an adult thing.
I have “friendly” reminders twice a month from my landlord. And not once I have ever been late on my rent. For the 3 years I have been a tenant. The constant emails are very annoying , and disrespectful. Should I take action?

Why would you take action? Just ignore the emails or filter them. I think you reading more into the reminder emails than is intended.

Although I think this is a pretty silly thing to get upset about, why not tell your landlord “While I appreciate your concern, you can tell by my payment record I don’t need a reminder. Just trying to save you time.” Make it sound like you want to do him a favor.

For all you know this "reminder" is a mass email auto generated by your LL or property manager's business calendar software. Seems like a silly thing to get your panties in a wad about. Ask the LL if you can opt out of this particular mass mailing. Then there's the humble delete key...it is free, a lot less hassle than filing legal action, and will work pretty well.
