How to Block a Sender in Gmail


Sometimes you may get unwanted mail that isn't necessarily spam.
While you can't currently block messages from specific addresses , you can set up a filter to send those unwanted messages directly to Trash.

Filtering Emails in Gmail

To set up a filter, follow these steps:
  1. Click Create a filter under the search box at the top of any Gmail page.
  2. Fill in the appropriate fields with the filter's criteria, and click Next Step.
  3. Choose the action you'd like for these messages by checking the appropriate box. (In this case, we suggest checking Delete it.)
  4. Click Create Filter.

If you are reading one of the emails from the extremely annoying person you wish you had never met, you can click the arrow next to the Reply button and choose “Filter messages like this” (being very careful not to accidentally reply with @!#$$% and open up a whole other can of worms)
Otherwise you can click the “Create a filter” link right next to the search boxes up near the top of the page…
If you chose “Filter messages like this” the From box will automatically be populated with the person’s email address, though you can write in their email address, or even their name. I’d go with the email address, and then click the “Next Step” button.
On this screen, you can click the “Mark as read” checkbox, and then click on the “Delete it” checkbox. This will send their messages automatically to the trash can.
Clicking the “Create Filter” button will make this filter active, and you’ll find it listed under Settings \ Filters in case you want to edit or delete it.

You’ll notice that the message isn’t permanently deleted, as it will sit in the trash can for 30 days until it empties automatically. Somehow that seems appropriate.
Tip:
If you want to block the Complete Domain then you can do this. For example U want to Block (abc@example.com) all messages from example .com then jus enter @example.com in Filter box
