@PJWMR You just need to keep marking the email as Spam/Junk. I'm not aware if emails being blocked at domain level.

You should be able to create a filter to direct them away from your inbox Something like this:

Not actually tested it myself.

This is a failing with Sky/Yahoo.

On webmail, you can click settings and then ...more settings where you can block individual email addresses - but not the domain - so spammers using multiple emails with different names from the same domain will still get through. This is because Sky/Yahoo won't let you block domains (although Yahoo mail will), and you also can't use a wildcard block *.*@domain

You must filter emails into a junk folder (or whatever folder you want) and then delete them all. Frankly, this isn't the best solution.

If you filter them to the spam or deleted folders, they will be automatically deleted after 30 days or so, so no need to do it yourself.

Try setting a mail filter using "If 'Subject' or 'Message' contains McAfee then move to spam".
