Blocking email senders

You can identify email addresses and domain names from which you want to block incoming email. When you receive email from blocked senders, the messages are automatically deleted and are never displayed in your Inbox.

About this task

Messages from blocked senders are immediately deleted. They are not put in your Trash folder.

1. Navigate to Preferences.
2. Select Spam.
3. Select Add or remove blocked senders.
   • To block a single email address:
     1. Type the email address to be blocked. Individual email addresses that you want to block must be added one at a time.
     2. Select Add. The email address is added to the blocked senders list.
   • To block an entire domain of email addresses:
     1. Type the command *@domain.com. For example, to block the domain test.com, enter *@test.com.
     2. Select Add. The domain is added to the blocked senders list.
4. When you finish, select Back to Spam settings.

What to do next

To remove an email address or domain from the list of blocked senders, select Remove next to the item that you no longer want to block.
