Can I block my brothers emails?

He’s mad and nasty and has told my parents to die and he’ll see us at our funerals. I don’t want to receive any more of these abusive messages. Can I block him on email? I’m so
Upset and disgusted.

I'm able block email accounts in gmail. I open the email and there's a drop down menu and the block option is there.

Yes, you should be able to block his emails in your email service - as selmabear says, this is easy to do in Gmail. If you want to say who your email provider is, we can find the right instructions.

Do you need to block him from your parents' emails as well? When he realises he is blocked, he may try other ways to get in contact so it's worth having a look at phone blocker options. I think iPhone has these built in (as does Android up to a point) but there are also call blocking apps you can get.

Is there a reason he's sending these emails? Is he well?

I think he’s not well but we can’t take any more- my mother has just lost her brother and my parents are very elderly. It’s terrible for them.

He told them to die.

If you are asking our permission to block someone who is abusing you and your elderly parents, then you have it.
