E-mail blocking does not appear to be working

A person I normally email has had their address book spammed so I am getting emails from them with questionable links.  While Verizon has been sending the emails to my spam box instead of my inbox - I did using blocking to block the email address as well as filters to delete any email coming from this email address.  However, the emails are still going to my spam box.  I want the emails to be deleted and not come in at all as I am afraid someone else in the household will click on one of the links.  I also deleted the email address from my contact list.  What am I missing?  It would seem to me that if you block it and filter it - you should be getting NO emails from that address.

I think the reason has to do with your blocking.  Your blocked senders may be over riding your filters.  so go to your mail settings, and back to the blocked section.
there are three options there.
Do not use blocked senders list
Delete the emails from the blocked senders list
Save the emails from those on the blocked senders list
You may have the 3rd one marked?  that would make sense to me. 
you can also delete the blocked senders, if you have filters in place.

  • TS3276 When i receive a message in Mail it does not appear in my inbox

    When i revieve a message in mail it does not appear in my in box until i click away from the in box by going into sent mail and then returning to the in box, this has only started happening since i have moved onto Maveric OS, any ideas anyone?

    I found the answer on another forum by '''Tom Wijsman''':
    Go to Options -> Advanced -> Config Editor.
    Find the Name mail.pop3.deleteFromServerOnMove
    Set it to True.
    True: Delete the copy of the message on the POP3 server if you move or delete the message.
    False(default): Only delete the copy of the message on the POP3 server if you delete the message.
    That's it, restart Thunderbird. You need to press 'Get Mail' everytime you want to sync with the email server, in order for you to make sure messages in the application is in sync with the email server.
    The following should be emphasized to realize the sync with the server. You will not see your server message disappear upon the initial Get Mail download (new messages downloaded). After you process your Inbox in Thunderbird by deleting/moving a new message, then do another Get Mail which will delete the new messages previously downloaded on the server (put in sync).
    Note: If you have older messages in your Thunderbird Inbox, they will not be deleted from Server. Delete them manually from server. From then on, any new messages you download, then process (delete/move), and then do the sync by doing Get Mail again WILL be deleted.

    My iMessage does not appear to be working. Every time I go to reply to an existing message it just appears as normal text. I have tried to create a new message but it still just defaults to normal messages. I have checked my settings but it is all set up as it should be. Is there anything I've missed or could try? Thanks

    Try the following:
    In Finder, select the problematic volume and then press command-I.
    Expand the Sharing & permissions section if it's collapsed.
    If the section is locked, then unlock it by pressing the padlock button and then authenticating as directed.
    Tick/check Ignore ownership on this volume.

  • HT4053 How do I delete photos, the delete button does not appear to be working?

    I have downloaded all my photos to my new IPad. I need to delete some I do not want, how do I do it. The delete button does not appear to be working?

    I personally don't know of any other software that does syncing, however, you can use another cloud service like Dropbox or Flikr to house your photos, add and delete them and have them available for viewing on any device or comuter that has an internet connection.
    I'm not sure why you would be having trouble not getting photos that you put into your Photo Stream Uploads folder on your iPad. Photo Stream is Photo Stream. Also, just so you know, photo management and Photo Stream have nothing to do with iTunes. Photo management on the computer is done through your photos folder and app (on a Mac, it's iPhoto). You only use iTunes to tell the sync process which items to retrieve and sync from that library. Photo Stream is completely independent of iTunes altogether.
    If you want to get photos from a camera to your iPad without having to use a computer, get a camera connection kit which will allow you to physically hook the camera to the iPad, and to directly download the photos from the camera to the iPad.
    You would still want to also hook the camera up to the computer to back those photos up to your photo library on your computer.
    Also you might want to look into purchasing (for under $5) iPhoto for your iPad:
    https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/iphoto/id497786065?mt=8
    Seems like you might benefit from talking to your local Apple Store about when they might have some sessions for learning photo management and sharing between your device and computer, because what you appear to be wanting to do is all do-able. I guess I'm just missing what your issue is. You can many things with photos on your iPad, however, your device will never be a substitue for your computer for backing up and managing your photos.
    So, best of luck, I hope one of the suggestions above will help you to achieve what you are trying to do.
    Cheers,

  • I have loaded new software and iMessages does not appear to be working.  All messages appear as in delivered but they will send to the same address on my iPhone.

    I messages does not appear to be working on iPad every time I type a message it comes up as in delivered but I can type the same message on my iPhone and it works straight away

    MMS is a carrier issue... contact Verizon and ensure your account is provisioned correctly.  I would think that someone would be intelligent enough to do that before buying a new device, but......
    iMessage could be an activation issue or a network issue.
    Have you tried Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings?
    Does iMessage work consistently on Wi-Fi?

  • Video will not play on BBC site error message this content does not appear to be working .Help

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, or by corruption of certain system caches. 
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and  Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • Autofill in Google Toolbar does not appear to be working with Firefox 4 - Aways saying Autofill not available for this page even on pages I have used it before FF4 upgrade

    Autofill in Google Toolbar does not appear to be working with Firefox 4 - It aways gives the message "Autofill not available for this page". This is happening on pages I have used Autofill on before upgrading to FF4 from Firefox 3.5.x

    i did not see a solution posted - I tired what I read. Going back to an old version may solve the problem but it is a stupid solution so I have yet to do that.
    I am on version 4 and autofil this does not work :

    Uninstall version 5, then Google "google toolbar version 4", follow the link to FileHippo.com, and download and install the last version 4. When you reinstall it, make sure you turn off the option to perform automatic updates.

    Try restoring to solve the switching off problem.
