How can I block spam? - Yseult Fox - 01-16-2013 09:28 AM

I have an other Yahoo account and that's the one I use for Tumblr, Facebook, Twitter, and games. I'm not sure since, but some people started sending me porn messages, porn links, and friend requests on Yahoo Messenger. But I don't know how to stop them, help me please... :'(

YAHOO MAIL


Usually just clicking on SPAM when you receive the message will direct it to your SPAM FOLDER and any subsequent emails from this person will go there...if that doesn't work try below..
NOTE: In the CLASSIC mode click on OPTIONS..MAIL OPTIONS...go to the left and click on SPAM...Make sure there is a check mark in the box to the left of "Automatically send suspected spam to my Spam folder" If you have to add the check mark go above and click on SAVE CHANGES.

If you are using yahoo classic go to "Options" It is above your email Click on "Mail Options"
Click on SPAM
Enter the address you want to block
Click on “Add Block”.
FINALLY...do not forget to click on SAVE CHANGES
++++++++++++++++++++++++++
In the NEW VERSION click on OPTIONS...MAIL OPTIONS and then BLOCKED ADDRESSES.
To save your changes just click on the "+" to the right of the address you just listed.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++
MESSENGER

.Once you sign in click on MESSENGER....then PREFERENCES...click on IGNORE LIST...You will see two options....when done click on APPLY then OK...
