How can I block emails from an individual?

In gmail, how can I block emails from a specific recipient, this person over floods my account with junk emails everyday and even though I have requested to stop the emails keeps on flooding in, HELP ME PLEASE!!!

  • Answer:

    That is the one downside to gmail, I'm afraid. You can't block specific recipients, you can only set up a filter to forward their emails to your trash.

Up at the top of your gmail, where you see the logo and then a search bar, there's a little link to the right of the "search the web" option button that says "show search options" and then one underneath that says "create a filter." Just click on the one that says "create a filter" fill out the forms and follow the "next" buttons!
