Block Specific e-mails

I am having a problem with a person who is sending me multiple e-mails from Japan asking me to communicate with her. She is cluttering up my e-mail and making me nervous, almost like she is a stalker. Is there any way to block her address from my computer. She evidently got my address from my blog (which I have since blocked from public). Sending to Junk Mail doesn't help, because I still have to check in there to make sure something important did not go to Junk by mistake. I tried the "bounce" option, but it does not discourage her.

You can create a rule in Mail to automatically delete all messages received from this person but there is no way to block recieving messages at the incoming mail server for the account with an email client setting. This can be done by your ISP or email account provider at the incoming mail server only.

  • How do I block and e-mail address?

    How do I block a specific e-mail address? I'm using the standard e-mail that came with my iMac.

    In the Mail App click on Mail > Preferences.

  • Specific E-mail with links causing freeze using Mail

    My wife is getting newsletter style e-mail from Better Homes and Gardens that contain links to pictures and other websites.  These pictures only appear  if internet access is connected so I believe that they are links that only are active once the mail is selected.  If the internet is off, the space for the photos is blank.
    I have isolated the problem to these specific e-mail messages that once selected, start some process of internet activity that causes the entire system to freeze and I get the beachball.  If I don't click on the message, everything is fine.  If I then turn off the internet access and open that message I can read it but there are no pictures or links. And the system continues to work fine.  If I leave the internet on and click on the message, it opens with the links and I can see pictures etc., BUT as I continue to read the message the computer will freeze up within 20 seconds.  If I try to click on any links within the message the computer freezes almost instantly.   Also, if I quickly get out of the message and try to view a different message from any other sender that also contains links, all the links and photos become unavailable.  And within a couple seconds the computer is locked up.
    From watching my internet access speed monitor and listening to the hard drive it appears that the message is initiating some internet access or hard drive activity that interupts other mail functions and locks up the machine.
    Anyone know how to troubleshoot this further?  Does it help to look at the message in it's raw coded form?  What would I look for?
    Thanks,
    Curtis

    You know, I expected an answer like; "Your parental control can't be used like that. Its just a program, so it will try to block adult sites, or block unsecure connections. Like AOL mail for example. If you want her to access the school mail, then you'll just have to allow unrestricted access to the web. You can still monitor her web browsing. As for gmail, some email sites are able to be accessed even with the parental controls turned on."
    I even expected some arrogant replies like Carolyn's. Telling me how to access gmail.
    Thanks for nothing!

  • How to block an e-mail address

    How can I block a specific e-mail sender ?

    No way to set it up in Mail. You can do it with your provider if they have that capability. Yahoo/Att can do it at the website.
    You can create a rule in Mail to delete messages from specific senders if you wish.

    How can I block an e-mail address from sending me spam on my iPhone 5s? My ISP is unable to help. I can block on my laptop via Outlook, but they still come through on my iPhone 5s. Thank you very much.

    You can "Move to Junk" and it should start doing it automatically after a few times:

  • How do I block unsolicited e-mail(s) from unsolicited senders? Why isn't there an auto option that simply pops up and asks if you wish to block this sender from future e-mails? I am so tired of my e-mail address being sucked out of a friends address book,

    How do I block unsolicited e-mails from the sites that have stolen my e-mail address from a friends address book, and send me non-stop horrid e-mails. Why is there no pop-up to ask if "want sender blocked", to easily solve this problem? Seems like it would be such an easy solution to what must be a universal problem with these e-mail pirates.

    It is frontiernet.com that would need to block the emails.
    You can setup a Mail "Rule" to send email you do not want into the trash, or a spam folder, etc...
    In fact, there is a Mail -> Message ->  Mark -> as Junk Mail, which will train Mail to reconize junk mail and start to automatically move it to a junk mail folder.
    You can put this option on the Mail toolbar via Mail -> View -> Customize Toolbar, and drag the "Junk" icon to your Mail Toolbar.
    But of course Junk takes training.  You can create a Rule to trash the emails you do not want right away via Mail -> Message -> Add Rule, or Mail -> Preferneces -> Rules

  • How can I block all other mail account just to only use the exchange mailbox of our company? This is to prevent the user to setup his on company iPhone.

    How can I block all other mail account just to only use the exchange mailbox of our company? This is to prevent the user to setup his on company iPhone.

    I don't know if I'm asking this all in a way that can be understood? Thanks ED3K, however that part I do understand (in the link you provided!)
    What I need to know is "how" I can separate or rather create another Apple ID for my son-who is currently using "my Apple ID?" If there is a way to let him keep "all" his info on his phone (eg-contacts, music, app's, etc.) without doing a "reset?') Somehow I need to go into his phone's setting-create a new Apple ID and possibly a new password so he can still use our combined iCloud & Itunes account?
    Also then letting me take back my Apple ID & password, but again allowing us (my son and I) to use the same iCloud & Itunes account? Does that make more sense??? I'm sincerely trying to get this cleared up once and for all----just need guidance from someone who has a true understanding of the whole Apple iCloud/Itunes system!
    Thanks again for "anyone" that can help me!!!

    Verizon can't fix it and yahoo can't change your Samsung application function.
    Just use the free Yahoo app.
    i Have a yahoo and Gmail and use separate apps for this reason.

  • BT is blocking specific traffic - Connection probl...

    I started having this problem about two weeks ago, after multiple phonecalls to BT and a couple of emails nothing has been done, so hopefully someone on the forum can help.
    The problem is the BT server that my hub connects to runs software to block specific traffic, I assume this is handy for restricted torrents or illegal downloads. But what it's blocking is a game called EVE Online, I used to play this game without a single problem until about two weeks ago. I logged in one day and the lag was unbearable, mainly due to the fact BT is blocking around 90% of packets that are sent to me. As I said, I used to be able to play no problem, but now I can't even go on for 2 minutes before I get kicked.
    I've confirmed with the EVE support team that BT is causing the problem, EVE uses UDP and it only requires a packet loss of 5 consecutive packets before the game disconnects you. This may not seem like a lot, but due to the nature of it, any more than 5 packets can cause major problems in the game, so they just disconnect you. A friend of mine also had this problem, but to a lesser extent, but it did span accross multiple games, he has since then switched to another broadband provider which I will not name, and hasn't had the issue since. In EVE, recently BT have been known to block traffic, I'm not the first to ask EVE support for assistance on the matter, so they weren't strangers to the problem.
    I've ran a program called Ping Plotter to the EVE server, for those of you unaware Ping Plotter is a useful tool to (as the name suggests) Plot the latency (ping) of your connection to the server. PP also records packet loss and the exact route the client is using to connect to the server. The results average about 90% packet loss, Below are the results of PP.
    500 trace count, 1 second per trace.
    Packet loss is highlighted in RED
    BT IP's are highlighted in BLUE
    EVE IP's are highlighted in GREEN

    As you can see, that is completely unacceptable. The connection between my PC to my HUB is perfect, from the HUB to BT is where things go pearshaped.
    Onto another note, the three times I've phoned, I've spoken to someone reading from a card. What I mean by that is they haven't got a clue what they're speaking about. They are denying there is a problem because 'ping google' works fine. the first time I was redirected to the tech support, but then found out I wasn't paying for the service so I couldn't use it. The second time the advisor hung up on me when I requested to speak to her supervisor, and the third I hung up because the advisor claimed BT broadband isn't designed to support online gaming, and he said a 90% packet loss is to be expected when online gaming, alright then.
    Any help whatsoever on this issue is greatly appreciated, If I've missed anything out just ask for it and i'll post it
    Thanks.

    What home hub model do you have and have you tried rebooting it? Lots of UDP traffic can be difficult for some routers to handle due to inbuilt firewall, an older router or possibly a router thats starting to have problems might cause issues(Dust blocking airflow slowing the processor down) like this due to load on the processor of the router(These things normally have very slow processors). Have you tried running extended ping tests ? I'd try ping -n 1000 www.google.co.uk and ping -n 1000 www.bbc.co.uk additionally try using ping -l 750 -n 1000 www.google.co.uk and ping -l 750 -n 1000 www.bbc.co.uk , What package are you on are you sure you're not on a package with traffic shaping? If the devices BT use to shape traffic dont understand what eve is it might assume its P2P related and throttle it? A glasnost test should help there. But the package you are on should be Totally unlimited rather than just unlimited and was introduced from sometime around Feb last year I believe. If you are on an older contract you are probably being traffic shaped. Additionally its best to concentrate on Packet loss to servers rather than to routers. Backbone routers are often setup to depriorize icmp traffic directed to their own addresses except from servers used to manage them, concentrating on packet loss to intermediate devices is often a red herring.
    There are various utilities out there that can test a tcp or UDP in a similar sort of way to ping, however the remote servers if they are protected by firewalls and IDP systems might detect that as an anomoly and block it as a possible attack.

  • Is there a way to block unwanted e-mails and spam on your mobile devices?

    Is there a way to block unwanted e-mails and spam on your mobile devices?

    This is generally handled by your e-mail provider, not your e-mail reader.
    For example, I use Gmail and it filters spam before it ever gets to my inbox. If something does get through, I can move it to the spam folder on my iPhone to report it as spam.
