How to block ads in Mail?

Hi guys,
I seldom use Mail, but every once in a a while, it can come in handy when Thunderbird, my default client, refuses to work properly. I always create the same accounts in both apps, but there's one thing (among others) that Thunderbird has, and Mail doesn't: an ad-killer. Is there a way to stop ads from being displayed within emails in Mail, the way Adblock Plus does in products of the Mozilla family?

Hi guys,
Thanks for your answers! Actually, I receive a lot of newsletters from various websites, and they're ripe with ads. That's how those guys make a living, I guess, but I don't like the visual pollution and would rather stick with Thunderbird and its ad-blocking capabilities. My question was more in the since-Safari-has-ad-blocking-then-why-not-Mail? variety. Could an AppleScript do the job, if I fed it a black list of URLs to block? How would it have to be done?

  • How to Block send e-mail by telnet using Exchange 2010

    Hi
    I have Exchange 2010 SP3 server (Edge and Database servers).
    When i logon to exchange server: telnet mail.domain.com 25using commands:
    mail from:[email protected]
    rcpt to:[email protected]
    I can send e-mails without password.
    How to block it? What is wrong with this server settings?
    Kind Regards Tomasz

    you can change the receive connector that is listening on port 25 to require authentication removing the anonymous the problem will be every server that sends you email will need to have a password on your server so  you will not receive email
    form anyone unless they have the password configured if you only want to receive email on this server from another trusted server than this is how you do it, otherwise you need to leave anonymous access enabled. Spam appliances sometimes will be the only server
    allowed to send to your exchange server, but the spam appliance will have anonymous access allowed on port 25 so it can get the email. Typically the distribution of port 25 traffic is handled at the firewall and it's either sending port 25 traffic to
    your email server or a spam appliance.

  • How to block the status mail for an inbound Idoc to a specific user

    Hi,
    I have to stop sending the error status mail to a specific user depenidng on Partner Type. This will trigger when an inbound Idoc contains status error(message type INVOIC &ORDRSP).This user needs other mails which are getting triggered with the same Idoc for the same partner. Basically, the requirement is to block only the status mail for that user. The statndard task for this is TS70008125 and it uses the agent determination rule 30000001 (Idoc Administrator).in WE46, this task is assigned to process code EDIR. I have copied the task to a custom task and changed the agent determination rule. I would like to know how will I configure this task so that this custom task will trigger for the status error, without altering other workflows for the same message type & the partner type. Or is there any other way to block the mail?
    Thanks,
    Santosh

    Hi,
    I have done the required coding to exclude the specific agent from the rule,copied the task and its ready. My question is how do I map this custom task to a particular partner type, for the message type INVOIC in WE20? (The message type used for the inbound Idoc is INVOIC). I checked the Partner profile in WE20. Most of the process code is using function module as the processing type.
    Thanks,
    Santosh

  • How to block junk e-mail on iphone/ mobile me account

    hello,
    My 1st post to support community. Hope you can be patient with me
    I am looking for help. I would like to know if there is a way to identify & block junk email on my iPhone. My service provider is Verizon (I have not checked with Verizon). The email account for iPhone  is my   ********me.com account.
    Do I block at me.com or on iPhone?
    thank you

    Mail filtering must be done at the server level. So, see if your mail provider offers filtering & how to setup the various rules. Such cannot be done on the phone itself.

  • 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 to Block ads in ipad like firefox adblock plus

    Hi,
    Just switch from android 4 and i'm unhappy to discover after buying the new ipad that you can't install FIREFOX with adblock plus.
    Is there a way to get rid off all this insane ads on the net with another ipad friendly browser ?
    this annoys me a lot a and make my ipad experience worst than in android 4, where I was abble to use firefox with adblock.

    Since there are a number of 3rd party browsers available via the iTunes app store, I don't believe there is anything preventing Firefox from developing an iOS compatible version of their browser.

    But the problem is that I did not found anyway to block advertissements in IE.
    Please, is there any extension or way to do so ?
    Thank you.

    Hi,
    Firstly, we need to update IE and install the latest features. And then we can change the security settings to avoide the pop-ups.
    Besides we can use the feature called Inprivate Filtering.

  • TS3899 How can I block an e-mail address on iPhone 5s? My ISP is unable to help. I can block via Outlook on my laptop, but they still come through on my iPhone

    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.

    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!!!
