Logging Into Your Gmail
Navigate to Gmail. Open your web browser and go to mail.google.com.
Log into your account. Enter your username/email and password. If you do not have a Gmail account you'll need to create one. Follow the instructions to do so.
Blocking an Email
Use the search bar. Inside your Gmail, there’s a search bar on top of the page that you can use to search your e-mail account. Click on the down arrow on the right part of this search bar, and a window to specify your search will drop down.
Type in the address you want to block on the “From” field. You can do this just by typing the e-mail address. This will affect all the messages from this address, regardless of what the message contains. If you want to be a little more specific, you can set the other fields too: To—Filter an e-mail who has a particular recipient. Subject—Enter any words that might be included in the subject line of the mail. Has the words—If the mail has any words in its body that’s declared here, it will be filtered out. Doesn’t have—If the body of the mail doesn’t have the words declared here, it will be filtered out. Doesn’t have attachments—E-mails that don’t have files with it will be filtered out. Don’t include chats—Skip messages/threads that you’ve replied to. Size—If the size of a message falls under the range set here, it will be filtered. Date—Set the range of time the messages will be filtered.
Click on “Create filter with this search” after you’ve set the fields. This option is located at the bottom-right corner of the search filter window.
Select the corresponding action for the filter. If you want to block it, select “Delete It.” Every time you receive a message that falls under the criteria of the filter you created, it will be redirected straight to the trash bin.
