Block Sender

"Gmail does an excellent job of blocking spam, but sometimes you just want to go the extra mile and prevent some mail from ever reaching your account." - Lifehacker

"If you’re looking to block unwanted emails, particularly from certain senders who send you unsolicited messages, an extension for Google Chrome called Block Sender is a great solution." - Make Tech Easier

"Makes this process very easy and will prevent you from getting inundated with pointless emails" - Business Insider

Do you get annoying email?

With Block Sender for Gmail™, you can block any email permanently in one click and automatically send a fake error message back to the sender. No more complicated filters to setup. Works for email addresses, domains, subject line, keywords, and even IP addresses. Block anyone.

Try a few blocks for free or upgrade to get advanced features like bounce back messages.

POPULAR USES:
- Block someone from harassing you with unwanted email. Send them a fake "This email address is incorrect" error message.

- Block any newsletter you didn't subscribe for and never see it again.

- Social networks or shopping sites sending you email you don't want to read? Block it in one click.

FEATURES:
- Adds a "Block" button compatible with your Gmail account. When you get a message you don't want, block the sender permanently.
- Automatically create a fake "This email address doesn't exist" error message to appear in the other person's inbox.
- Optionally send a "You were blocked" email when a blocked user contacts you
- Create advanced blocks not natively supported by Gmail, like blocking via headers.
- Anonymous: Blocked senders won't know that the messages they send you goes to your trash immediately, unless you want them to know.
- Flexible: Edit or remove accidental blocks.
- Freedom: Set your blocks to trash messages, permanently delete them, or have them skip the inbox and be archived.
- Advanced Filtering: Block sub-domains, subjects, or even IP addresses when you upgrade.
- Insightful: Flag future messages from the same domain.


AND MANY MORE USES:
- Getting a lot of notification messages from Facebook, Twitter, or social media services you signed up for? Block them all.
- Set up simple filters without having to worry about the cumbersome options.
- Fake your email death for those people you really don't want to talk to. Ever. Again.
- Relationship ended horribly? Never see another message from your ex again.
