    Adult junk mail

    Hi.

    I keep getting adult junk mail. When I R-click on said mail, in the drop-down menu there are two options:
    1) Add sender to blocked sender's list.
    2) Add sendre's domain to blocked sender's list.

    Which of the two should I select?
    Obviously the "Blocked sender's list" is just that, but what is the sender's domain?

    ATB Gary.

    If "Add sender to blocked sender's list" you will receive no further e-mails form that sender.
    If you "Add sender's domain to blocked sender's list".
    You will receive No further e-mails from anyone listed on that domain.

    Only you can decide

    Explanation here What is a domain? - Knowledge Base
    Short version.
    A web site is registered with a domain such as .com, .edu, .net, and .org

    So if the e-mail was from Adult.com and you "Add sender's domain to blocked sender's list"


    You will receive no e-mails from anyone with an e-mail that ends in .com

    It really does depends on were the e-mail came from because certain countries do
    have a lot of dubious websites registered with them. So if you Add sender to blocked sender's list
    You will not receive mail from them again only to find you may get mail from someone with a similar name but the same domain.

    That's the basic short answer hope it helps your decision.
