Why do you make it so DIFFICULT to block an email address? I'm getting sick to death of spam that I can't block so what is the point of using your email system?

Why don't you just allow users to just right click on an unwanted email and block the sender? I'm getting so sick of spam that I thinl I'm just going to use gamil for everything and dump thunderbird - it's not a lot of use if I can't block a sender without having to open the email.

Spam first defense frankly is best handled by the mail provider, so your choice of mail provider determines how much spam you are going to see in your mail client.

For spam reduction, gmail is an excellent choice. I also find fastmail to be excellent.

In both cases, you can still use Thunderbird.
