Stop spam texts from email addresses

Hi. How do I stop ALL texts that come from email addresses? I know how to block individual ones but I want to block all texts that are sent from I email address. I get a spam text from email, I’ll block it but they just keep coming from other ones. The only thing I’ve been able to to is filter know and unknown senders but this isn’t good enough. I want these spam texts stopped

Contact your cellular carrier. They have the ability to block all SMS / MMS messages that originate from email instead of a phone number.

Whether they will or not is something else entirely.


If you have AT&T, call customer service and ask the rep who answers to look up Article *446389 in their system.

That explains what they need to do.
