I really want to become a procrastinator, but I keep putting it off. How can you be in two places at once, when your not anywhere at all? If that does not work you can use the "Filters" setting page to create a more refined filter and send the messages to the trash folder instead of the spam folder. On the "Spam" settings page under "Blocked Email Addresses" it appears it will accept domains only, so if your getting messages from you should be able to just enter in the blocked addresses list.

Hey Uni, there's a couple different ways you can do this. I'm not sure if any AT&T staff member is following this thread, or reading this post, but someone should let AT&T esupport know to add this last step to the above instructions. I went right back into the list and the specific sender was still on the list so after removing the sender you have to click on "Save Changes" to unblock the sender. I also just went into the "Blocked Addresses List", removed the block from a specific sender, their name/domain was completely removed, and exited w/o clicking on "Saving Changes". Their names/domains disappeared from the "Blocked Addresses list" on exiting.
#HOW DO I BLOCK EMAIL ON YAHOO MAIL HOW TO#
How to block and un-block mail from a specific sender They left the most important step out in clicking on "Save Changes" at the end which I'll add in as the last step and type in with red text. (see below link for instructions).īelow are the instructions from the AT&T esupport link and if you follow these instructions "to the letter" you won't be blocking/unblocking any specific senders. With spam emails being so rampant these days you would think there would be an obvious link to blocking/unblocking unwanted senders instead of having to search it out. Only when doing a search in support for blocking spam emails do I find the below topic. Then if I click on "HSI-Internet Support" I see how to "Troubleshoot Email Account" but there is not one support topic mentioning spam. I'll have to adjust the filtering some because I think the same ones are getting through.Īs mentioned before every time I click on a question mark in Yahoo email it take me to the "AT&T Support Center". Of course for everyone I block it seems like a new one shows up. Thanks!īelieve I'm starting to weed the low-life spammers out now that I'm starting to learn how to block them. I'm also afraid I might lose the Classic email view if I do this and don't want to switch to the "new" email.ĭoes anybody have a solution for blocking unwanted spam w/AT&T Classic Yahoo email? I'd really appreciate any help but I'm not interested in completely changing email clients. But I don't want to switch back and forth all the time to do this. I know with the "new" AT&T email they have some type of blocking system which may just flag a site and not let their emails be received anymore. I remember before contacting AT&T/U-verse about other email problems and they said I need to contact ConnecTech which I know is a pay service. It also prompted me the other day to contact AT&T, my provider, for any problems rather than contacting Yahoo. So when I click on any type of question mark in Yahoo Classic it immediately links me to the U-verse home page.

This didn't work either and they all still show up instead of being sent to the trash bin.

And even though I might miss an email in the spam folder I went into "Spam Guard" and under "Empty Spam Folder" I selected "Immediately" and saved the setting. I don't think my email stores these blocked sites anyhow and they come right back. I've tried to block them but unfortunately they will have a different combinations of letters (not a name) on everyone of spam emails from the same site.

And no, I don't go onto these types of websites. I'm getting about 30 emails a day in my spam box/folder and half of them are lewd or disgusting. I have AT&T/Yahoo email and use Yahoo Classic.
