    Blocking Amazon

    I'm having problems blocking the annoying Amazon that keep on Spamming my e-mail. I've got them in my block folder of course but their Spam still leaks in my Inbox. I've also marked their e-mails off as Spam and their e-mail never go in my Bulk folder, always in my Inbox. This has happened through my Yahoo and Google. Has anyone else got this problem? I've told Amazon to remove me from their list even though I never subscribed to it and they ignored me. If I wanted to know offers about hairdryers, anklechains and cookery books I would have looked them up myself. They always advertise things I'm not interested in. I don't need a hairdryer for one thing, I only have to stick my head out of the window for ten seconds and my hair is bone dry.

    Many thanks.

    I don't know much about Gmail, but I use Yahoo! mail, and I'll tell you that you can create filters... just make a filter that *amazon.com will be moved to Trash. That should fix it for that email at least.

      When someone wants to spam you, sometimes there is no way to stop them.

        Many thanks.

        I used to use Yahoo but they got sloppy with a slow server that drove me mad and some e-mails from shopping sites are under my Yahoo address such as Amazon. I did forward all Yahoo mail to my Google even though Amazon was previously blocked through Yahoo but their junk mail still leaks through the Yahoo block filter to my Google. I have the same Amazon e-mail address listed twice in my Yahoo block filter. Why they still get through, I don't know.

        Many thanks.

          I wish I could have an auto system to send these people a virus to stop them. Then their database will go down and cost them money.

          Many thanks.

            I know this might be obvious, But have you gone through the Unsubscribe process in the small print at the bottom of the page?
