Can you block people on Gmail?

[BanAnnoyingPeople]

I don't mean just filter them or put them into spam, but block completely?

I've just had a look at Gmail on my phone. If you click the 3 dots beside the reply arrow it gives you an option to block. I don't want to try it as I've no one to block but it's handy to know.

Sorry OP, I don't think you can. Blocking a sender just means there emails go straight to spam.

Thanks Yadda but it sends people to spam.

A Google suggests that you may be able to do various things using 3rd party software eg

Obviously if you want to use a 3rd party program do your research well as it will presumably have access to your emails.
