Hi, this is really not the right place for this! But if you are looking for an e-mail anti-spam/blocking tool, then try Mail Washer Pro:

Bounce his mail few times and he'll thought that your mail account is not active anymore.

 

Hi BrainWarp

Does you e-mail client have a blocked senders list option?

CrazyM


... also moving this to the Software & Services forum.

 

This is a very adequate Forum for this and along with what CrazyM asked....what do you use for an e-mail client ?

 

Hello guys

I am using yahoo for this e-mail--the guy is crazy--i'm just tierd of his e-mails

How do i bounce it?

 

my suggestion is to add the persons email address to the blocked address list, or create a filter to send his email to the trash. if u dont know how to do this, consult the yahoo help desk

 

Report him as a spam sender to yahoo! That'll shut him up.
"Mark message as spam" option in web interface should help.

 

You can block adresses in mail options > block adresses.

 

If you use MSN hotmail, you can report junk-email easily:

 

Thx guys--i'll play around with it.I mean i must have 15 different e-mails and i could fill that e-mail box up so when he tries to send his e-mail it will be sent back to him.


Anyway thx for the ideas

 

I know this is not what you asked, however, if you want to shut him up, warn him that you will give him negative feedback with E-bay. Sellers on Ebay depend on high positive ratings. I doubt very much that Ebay's policy allows for abusing the confidential information that is given in good faith so that a business transaction can take place. Surely there are Terms Of Service. You may wish to review Ebays TOS and see if you have any recourse through them.

one additional comment. as someone that used to get very angry over stuff like that (email/privacy abuse) I became a much happier person when I finally realized...It takes but a second to delete mail without reading it. Just hightlight and click delete. Frankly, i don't even report them as spam anymore. I just don't care. let them write. it doesn't bother me. the fact that sender can often tell if a message was deleted without having been opened makes it just that much more satisfying.

 

Hands off
I do as you do,just delete without reading,let em write

I don't even want to read them. Creating a pre-download filter to delete automatically messages with blank subjects (my friends are warned ) or a certain email address/domain/subject/header from my server.
For the rest all is taken care off through my Bayesian filter.

 

Eldar... didya code it urself? If yes... tell me, where can I get some intro material into Bayesian Processing (never thought what we studied so long ago in Math class would be so damn popular)

 

Nope, I wish I did.
All features are available in my email client. Have a look at the International Society for Bayesian Analysis.

Indeed it's very popular to combat spam/junkmail and for me it's working like a charm.
