Question about blocked senders list.
 
Hello.

When you add addresses to the blocked senders list, can you use '*'?

For instance, if the address was something like
, how should I enter it?

e.g.
or
or *.lk

Thanks for your help.

Question about blocked senders list.
 
If you want to just block the sender, then: Message | Block Sender. If you
want to block every message from that domain, enter the domain including the
@ sign. Eg: @canada.com.

IMHO, a message rule set to Delete it from server is more practical as you
will never see the message even in Deleted Items. Especially for the domain
rule.
