🚫 What Is the Block Sender Feature in Mailbird?
Mailbird’s Block Sender feature lets you automatically move unwanted emails from specific senders straight to your Spam or Junk folder so that they never clutter your inbox again.
This article will walk you through how the feature works and how to manage it effectively.
🔄 How the Block Sender Feature Works
To block unwanted senders, Mailbird must be actively running. If the app is closed or not running in the background, blocked emails will still arrive in your inbox.
Once the feature is enabled and Mailbird is open, emails from blocked senders will bypass your inbox and go directly to your Spam or Junk folder.
🛑 How to Block a Sender
To block a sender:
-
Open an email from the sender you want to block.
-
Click the three vertical dots at the top of the message.
-
Select Block "Sender Name" (e.g., Block "Mailbird").
After this, future messages from that sender will automatically be redirected to your Spam or Junk folder.
✅ How to Unblock a Sender
If you’ve blocked someone by mistake or changed your mind, you can easily unblock them:
-
Open any email from the blocked sender.
-
Click on Unblock sender at the top of the message.
📋 How to View and Manage All Blocked Senders
To review or manage all blocked senders:
-
Click the Mailbird menu (three horizontal lines) in the top-left corner.
-
Select Settings.
-
Navigate to the Filters tab.
-
Scroll to the bottom to view your list of blocked senders.
From here, you can unblock any sender as needed.
