    Hi,

    If it is Spam, you have to mark them as Spam and they will be moved to your SPAM folder. When you receive them in future, they will directly go into your Spam folder. You can EMPTY your Spam folder may be once or twice a week. There is no point in Blocking them as these phishers & schemers create new email ids and keep sending you the emails.

    If you still would like to Block those addresses in the All NEW MAIL, here is how to:

    * In your email page, move cursor to the GEAR icon at the top right corner (next to your name);

    * At the drop-down menu, select SETTINGS;

    * In the left pane, go to the "BLOCKED ADDRESSES";

    * To your right side, you will see a box with BLOCK & REMOVE tabs next to it;

    * Write the email address in the box next to "ADD an ADDRESS";

    * Click on BLOCK; Click on SAVE in the bottom of the screen;

    * Repeat the same procedure for other addresses;

    * Your choices are saved. You won't receive e-mail from this address anymore.

    Best Regards!
