Block emails in Outlook

Some spam mailers never stop. Time and again, an annoying ad or weird request arrives in your inbox. Outlook has a solution for that. It is possible to block a sender. After that, you will never see emails from that sender in the mailbox again. Cleaned up neatly!

This is how it works in the Outlook PC program:

• Launch Outlook.
• In the overview of e-mails, right-click on an e-mail from the sender you want to block.
• click on Unwanted mail >Block sender.
• click on OK.

E-mails from this sender will now automatically end up in the ‘Junk e-mail’ inbox.

It works almost the same in Outlook on the web.

• Go to www.outlook.com and sign up.
• In the overview of mails, right-click on a mail from the sender you want to block
• click on To block.
• click on OK.

The mail will be deleted and new messages from this sender will no longer be sent to the mailbox.

Have you changed your mind? Unblock a sender in the Outlook program like this:

• Look in the Junk E-mail folder for an e-mail from the sender.
• Right click on the email.
• click on Unwanted mail > No junk e-mail.

In Outlook.com, follow these steps:

• Look in the Junk E-mail folder for an e-mail from the sender.
• Right click on the email.
• click on Mark as Not Junk.
