How To Block Unwanted Emails In Gmail?

Gmail is the hub for sending and receiving emails. In today’s commercial world many businesses send the email to our Inbox for the promotion of their products. If you are getting emails you don’t want in your inbox, you can block the sender, unsubscribe from the sender or even report the message depending on the type of the email.

Blocking emails from the sender will direct all the emails to the spam folder. This blocking of users in Gmail will get you rid of unwanted emails in your Inbox. These emails may be from particular senders, mailing lists, or spam in general. Whatever is the cause Gmail makes it easy to block unwanted emails?

Block a sender in Gmail:

 Gmail added the new feature to block a sender and stop receiving unwanted emails by adding them to the block list.

Step1. Sign into Gmail by entering username and password.

Once you click on the Block, all the future messages from the sender of the email will be marked as spam.

Blocking an email from a sender will actually send the future emails from the sender email address to the spam folder to technically live on. But, Gmail has never given a genuine option Block, in which unwanted email is simply never received.

Unblock a sender in Gmail:

Please do remember that if you have blocked a sender accidentally, then you can follow the same procedure above and unblock.

All you have to do is open the email you had unlocked accidentally, and click on the top-right of the email and click Unblock [Sender].
