Nuisance emails

Altnaharrie — Sun, 27 Aug 2023 10:42:17 GMT

I am receiving daily emails from a company using the same email address. This is on web mail where I have logged into my email account. I have used the block but for some reason the block isn't working and the emails keep coming through. I have checked the email being used and it is the same one each time. How are they circumventing the block feature and how do I deal with it?

I have also applied filters but they seem to be able to get around this too.

Are they ending up in your inbox, if so try marking them all as spam so that they are removed to the spam/junk folder.

Thanks for your response,

I will do this if I have no alternative but ideally I would like to block them altogether

@Altnaharrie you may have blocked/filtered the wrong email address. an 'l' for a 'one' for example?

Also - if you're using your browser to access your email, there's usually an advertisement on the top, line rather than an incoming email. Blocking and filtering won't remove it. An ad-blocker add-on for your browser should do. Or use an email app instead of your browser.
