How To Block Emails in GMAIL

http://www.diywebmastery.com - if you use gmail for your e-mail, you can easily filter out unwanted emails from people who keep sending you stuff you don't want to see.

First click on one of the unwanted messages and then on the show details link so that you can copy the proper full email address as shown below :

Next, I create a filter by clicking on the create a filter link at the top of the window. Next paste the offending address into the from field and run a test search by clicking the test search button - this will list every single message that matches the search criteria. Next, click on the next button and fill in the fields there to design the actions you want to take for mails that fit the criteria.

Normally, I just click the boxes that allows the unwanted message to bypass my inbox, and it get deleted. Once this is done, you won't see these communications again, past and future, because they go straight to the trash bin.

Thank you for your comments. Nothing I can do about the snoring. My dogs want to be in the office ... I'm thinking of branding all my videos "Snoring Dog Productions", just to set expectations.

Hi! Can you filter spam mails only with complete mail adresses or also with domains like @aol.com?

[diywebmastery]

@2011October2011 You can also use partial addresses

is your dog, boyfriend, brother, dad, or husband snoring in the background? haha

[diywebmastery]

@TheJuiceGroup Well, my dad died in 1991 so it's not him. It was my Cavalier King Charles Spaniels. They snore for England.

Thanks so much, I get jobs.ac.uk sending me every single job, proposal or just about anything else to my email - more than a dozen emails a day - whether it is applicable at all to my situation. Successfully blocked :)
