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.
