Mac mail, both computer and iOS versions, allows us to block senders. But mail from Blocked senders is still placed in my mailbox with a note it is from a blocked sender. Is there a way to actually block the mail from unwanted senders?

“Blocked mail” is repeatedly placed in my inbox with a note that it is from a blocked sender. Is there a way to actually block the mail? My settings are set to have blocked mail go directly into junk, but this is not happening. Is there a fix for this?

this happens on MacBook Pro, iPad and iPhone.

MacBook Pro 15”, macOS 10.15

No relevant response. Apple has just directed me to the directions I already knew about, already followed, which do not do what they say. Sad to see so many glitches appearing in Apple software.
