While you can't currently block messages from specific addresses or domains in Gmail, you set up filters to send those unwanted messages directly to the Trash, never to be seen. Follow these easy steps to banish all unwanted mail.
1. If you're using Google Chrome: Add the Block Sender for Gmail extension from the Google Chrome web store.
2. Then in Gmail, open any message you want to block. You will see a new Block button. Pressing this button will create a Gmail filter blocking the sender.
3. A confirmation message will appear, allowing you to undo the block. Afterwards, a Gmail filter is created so that future messages from this sender skip your inbox and are put in the trash automatically.
1. Open Gmail. Determine which sender you no longer wish to receive messages from.
2. Click the triangle on the right-hand side of the search bar at the top of the screen. A window will appear. Ensure All mail is selected in the Search drop-down at the top left of the window.
3. Enter in the sender you want to block. In the From space, type in the email address of the sender you'd like to filter.
4. Click the Create filter with this search hyperlink at the bottom right of the search window. A new window will appear containing a number of possible actions to be applied to your search criteria.
5. Select Delete it by clicking the checkbox to the right. All messages received from this sender will automatically be sent to the Trash.
