    Troll email

    There’s this troll type email that I’ve been trying to get rid of for some time now and its really bothering me that it won’t just go away. I’ve tried to unsubscribe it and I also tried sending it to spam. It’ll eventually find its way back into my inbox. Is there anyway that I could rid of this bugging email?

    Often clicking the unsubscribe button/link just tells the spammer that the email account is active & you end up with more spam for them. They often change the sending email address slightly to get past any spam filters, you could block the domain to see if that stops it all.

      I sent the whole domain to my spam folder but it still finds it way in my inbox somehow. So I see that’s not working. Which is why I’m here. I’m pretty stumped on what to do now.

        Usually there’s a filter list either in the email client or on the webmail version where you create a rule along the lines of β€œif β€˜from’ contains @domain.com move it to spam/junk”. Just moving the mail to junk/spam may not be enough for persistent spam.

          Okay. I seen it. I configured it to be deleted. So I’m going to see how that works out. Thanks for all your help.

              So far, I hadn’t gotten anything after trying your suggestion. Thanks a bunch. If it comes through again, I’ll be sure to post back here.
