Re: [orca-list] Blocking a sender

[Christopher Chaltain <chaltain gmail com>]

I go with what Didier suggests, but I think there are two other options 
you may want to consider.


First, you can run a filter at your email provider instead of your email 
client, such as Gmail. You can go to gmail.com, assuming you use Gmail, 
and set up the filter there. This way it will be applied no matter what 
client you end up using.


Second, you can try marking those messages as junk and train Thunderbird 
and Gmail to move those messages into your junk folder when it sees them.


Hmm, makes me wonder if I know who you're talking about! :-)
