![]() ![]() I get so much junk mail (mostly from PR people who either don’t know or don’t care what my beat is) that the block feature has been crucial to my productivity. Here’s what I see immediately after I try to block an address: Google provides no easy way to know about this. Emails from those addresses continue to go right into my inbox. When I use the feature now to block an address, I see a message telling me that all future emails from the address will go to my spam folder. Blocked but not blockedĪt some point, the block address feature stopped working. With a single click, any future emails sent by those nuisance addresses automatically landed in my spam folder. A few months ago, my G Suite-enabled Gmail account reached a grim milestone: with no warning, the “block ” feature-available from the menu with the three vertical dots in the upper left of the Gmail screen-stopped working because I had maxed out the total number of addresses Google allows to be blocked.įor years, I’ve used the feature liberally to block emails from PR people who send off-topic pitches or scammers who try to phish my passwords or infect my devices.
