It\u2019s a tedious and repetitive task, and while you might get a clean inbox today, it probably won\u2019t stay that way tomorrow.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>While Block Sender is a great method of managing your inbox, a free account only allows for four blocks per month. To block unlimited senders, you will need to subscribe to their Pro plan for $29\/year.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>If you\u2019re looking to block unwanted emails, particularly from certain senders who send you unsolicited messages, an extension for Google Chrome called <a href=\"https:\/\/chrome.google.com\/webstore\/detail\/block-sender\/bklnjbfcmglhiaoppcckdodanccbelcg?hl=en-US\" target=\"_blank\">Block Sender<\/a> is a great solution. The extension blocks any sender you specify in your inbox, then replies to the sender with a fake message failure notice. As a result, the sender will stop sending future messages and will take your email address off a mailing list.<\/p>\n<p>Upon installing the extension, a new tab will direct you to Gmail. If you\u2019re already logged in, it should display your inbox.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.maketecheasier.com\/block-unwanted-emails-gmail\/\" target=\"_blank\">Article Continued Here<\/a><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>This excerpt is shared with permission from maketecheasier.com.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Handy Google Chrome extension blocks unsolicited emails.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":25,"featured_media":48465,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"categories":[20],"tags":[4125,582],"class_list":["post-48459","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-maketecheasier-com","tag-email-spam","tag-gmail"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
