Blocking emails from unknown senders

When I try to block a sender, it does not seem to work. I determine where the email came from, block the address, but they still come the next time I download emails. (Different email, same sender)

Hello johnfrombarrock,

It sounds like you are trying to block unknown senders in your email.

Here are some resources that can help:

When using Block phone numbers, contacts, and emails on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch you are blocking email addresses as "From these screens, you can add or remove blocked phone numbers, contacts, or email addresses."

If using iCloud mail, you can also see if this helps: Identify and filter junk mail in iCloud

Hope this information helps.

Have a good day.
