4kids4me Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 (edited) I'm just wondering if someone keeps emailing me stuff I don't want, how do I set that up to not accept their email address? ETA: I don't want to put this email into my "junk" folder...I just don't want to allow any email from this sender at all.

DarcyB Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 Are you subscribed to their site? If so, unsubscribe. If it's an individual, I think you can only mark it as spam, and maybe you won't see it show up in your regular email. At least I know yahoo and gmail don't allow you to block individual emails.

Farrar Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 Most web-based email systems will have a "mark as spam" button or "report spam" - it should send their stuff to a separate spam folder then you don't have to see it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not a site, just an individual from a Bed and Breakfast I made an inquiry to a couple of years ago. I've responded a couple of time asking to be taken off her list, but I still get email.

Pippen Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 It depends on your system. On my public hotmail account I can designate it as junk and that usually weeds it out. On my private account I can use a block sender feature which automatically sends it to my junk box or through my email provider there is a feature that I can block an address so it doesn't get delivered.

4kids4me Posted September 16, 2010 Author Share Posted September 16, 2010 Ok, so I know it's mean but I sent the lady about 15 emails which were replies to her email saying FOR THE SECOND TIME, PLEASE REMOVE MY EMAIL ADDRESS FROM YOUR EMAIL LIST. Hopefully that'll do it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crissy Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 I did something like this recently. My cousin sells Mary Kay cosmetics. She gave my address to her friend/business partner to email me an invitation to the party they were co-hosting. I began getting daily emails for all the home-party businesses this woman is involved with and she would not respond to my request to remove my name from her contacts. I created a filter to automatically delete any email from her address. I use Gmail, but I believe most programs have this option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teachin'Mine Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 I think there's an e-mail you can send which will promptly stop all others. Tell her you'd like to book two rooms for this weekend - one for you and your husband, and one for your four children. Write about how it's been a horrendous week with the little ones writing all over the walls, over flowing toilets from them experimenting on what things they can and cannot flush, and general mayhem, and you need some time away from them, but no baby sitters are willing to take them for the weekend. So you'd like separate rooms so you can have some alone time. Remind her, if she's forgotten, that your Newfoundland needs to come too and he only drools a lot after he drinks from the toilet. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
